- This chapter addresses the emergence of a new innovation space based on an new market within China, especially the development of the electrical bike industry and a leading firm in China. This is analyzed as a co-evolutionary process involving technologies, entrepreneurs, policy, niche market and an eco-innovation meeting new demands of customers. The chapter provides an analysis of the evolution of e-bike use and industry in China, then moving to a case study of the strategies of the lead producer, Lvyuan. The development of e-bikes in China is linked to issues of transportation and the presence of infrastructures, but also to values and practices about biking and the regulatory framework. Producers have had to meet the demand of various categories of users, thereby promoting niche markets rather than a bandwagon effect of general diffusion.
