Returns every current bike model with CNY pricing, full spec tables, geometry data, available sizes, colorways, hero images, and gallery URLs.

Notes

The actor crawls bike_finder.html (the full catalog page, ~138 bikes) and for each bike calls the get_bike_info JSON API endpoint to retrieve structured metadata, then merges with the static HTML spec tables on the detail page. No proxy is required — the site is fully accessible without anti-bot measures.
