I removed the bicycle compatibility, crash, installation, mounting, restraint-system, and cycling safety sections from the MiniBiker version because they don't apply to KidzStep. The original also identified MiniBiker as the operator and included its Hong Kong company details.
Important: I also deliberately did not put a made-up company name/address into the KidzStep legal section. Use your actual legal entity there before publishing.
