Ridge Relay is a handlebar-mounted intercom system designed for young riders’ group cycling activities. It helps children and teenagers communicate instantly during park rides, off-road exploration, family trips, and outdoor team games, without reaching for a phone or using a conventional handheld walkie-talkie while moving.
The design comes from a real riding scenario: young riders often split into small teams, move at different speeds, and need quick voice contact to coordinate routes, alerts, or team play. Instead of treating the two-way radio as a pocket device, Ridge Relay turns it into a stable handlebar interface. Two large front buttons provide Push-to-Talk and alert tone control, allowing fast one-hand operation while the rider keeps attention on the road.
The product separates a fixed handlebar base from a detachable main unit. The main unit snaps onto the base through a magnetic dock and spring contacts, creating a secure mount and a functional connection for power and button signals. It can also be removed for charging or handheld communication after the ride.
Its compact white body, orange action areas, rounded edges, clear status window, speaker grille, and side controls create a product language that is friendly to young users but not toy-like. Ridge Relay gives young riders a more focused, physical, and screen-free way to stay connected, supporting safer coordination and more independent outdoor play.
