Low MOQ Custom Bike Helmets: Start a Private-Label Line at 300 Pieces

300 pcs per model can carry your colors, logo and packaging. See what a low-MOQ helmet run includes and how to brief a supplier to get a real quote back.

Custom bike helmet colorways for private-label orders
Can you start a private-label bike helmet line with only 300 pieces? Yes. At 300 pieces per model, you can have your own colors, logo, and packaging — enough to test a market without tying up your cash in inventory.
We are FONYON, a helmet OEM sourcing partner based in Shenzhen, China. We coordinate three partner factories and manage your order from sample to shipment.
This page shows what 300 pieces gets you, how long it takes, and what to prepare.

What You Can Customize at 300 Pieces

The 300-piece minimum applies to the layer above an existing model — not to new tooling.
What
Details
Colors
Choose from the factory's palette, or specify your own
Logo
Printed or decal on the shell, plus strap tags and labels
Packaging
Your own box, hangtag, and instruction card
Details
Visors, rear lights, padding colors, buckles
Size mix
Split across S/M/L within one model
Printed graphics and colors are part of the customization layer.

Mold and structural changes are the one thing a 300-piece run cannot buy. A new shell shape or a redesigned liner is a separate tooling project with its own budget and minimum order.
Stock models are simpler: if you only need stock colors and stock packaging, quantities can be flexible.

How the Process Works

  1. Stock sample — free. We send a stock model without your logo so you can check the shape, weight, and finish in your hands. You cover the freight.
  1. Custom sample — 7 to 20 days. Once you pick a model and send your logo files and colors, we make a customized sample for your approval.
  1. Production — 7 to 50 days. After you confirm model, colors, logo, packaging, and size mix, your order goes into production. Timing depends on order size and complexity.
  1. Inspection and shipping. We coordinate inspection, packing, and export documents, and hand the goods to your forwarder.
Every date above is confirmed in writing for your specific order before production starts — not a promise made on a webpage.

Certification: What to Confirm Before You Order

Certification is available by model and market, not by default. Some of our models have been tested to EN 1078 (CE) and 16 CFR 1203 (CPSC), and we can provide the test report for the exact model you order.
Before you order, confirm four things in writing: which standard, which model, which test house, and the date.
One of our tested models: EN 1078:2012+A1:2012. Ask for the report before you order.


Why Buyers Work With Us

We are not a factory. We coordinate three partner factories in Dongguan and Huizhou, and that changes what you get:
  • Three quotes, not one. We compare price, capacity, and lead time across three production lines, then recommend the one that fits your market and deadline.
  • Pricing on combined volume. Your order is quoted against our ongoing volume with the factories, not as a one-off.
  • Flexibility after you order. If your packaging or deadline changes, we can move your order to a different production line within 24 hours.
  • No language barrier. We handle the details in Chinese with the factories, and you deal with one English-speaking contact who replies within one business day.
The same 300-piece structure applies across our partner factories' models.
