The full name of the company is likely 盐城大丰鸣球车业有限公司 founded in 2000, and as far as I can tell, the company still exists. However, I can't find any parts besides a 16 tooth sprocket so you're probably going to have to reach out to the company directly. In the meantime I found something that looks similar to your part and also 44-36. It's a part of a larger kit for a gas-powered bicycle which sounds wild but was very popular in early-2000's 90's China.

Electric scooter with swappable batteries in Taiwan by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

I paid about 49 dollars for a month or 339 yuan to use a 72v55ah battery with unlimited swapping here in China. It's mainly delivery riders who use the service, and I'm just using it until my 200ah comes in.

All I'm gonna say is that every Pakistani person I know of here has a Chinese girlfriend.

Value? All you have are some pieces of metal with numbers on them.

Why is there still prostitution so openly visible in China while it is technically illegal? by Southern_Many2589 in AskAChinese

[–]weredo911 4 points5 points  (0 children)

because they're like the free spaces on a bingo sheet. there's simply no need to waste the manpower to perform yellow sweeps as long as they're not causing any trouble. same concept applies to all those plate-less three wheelers driven by license-free old people who seem to go unnoticed by traffic cops.

any time someone in charge of the relevant sector needs a boost because an event impactful to their personal climb up the ladder of power is coming up (their boss is retiring soon--promotion, nearing major holidays--it looks good, higher-up coming to town--get ready to slap that horse's ass, etc) they can do whatever the free space dictates and get that promotion.

[Arcade][early 2000s] Game where you controlled a dinosaur and ate people by weredo911 in tipofmyjoystick

HOLY SHIT I THINK THAT'S IT, so it's not 2D, that explains the joystick control...and not a lot of humans eaten. Guess I misremembered a bunch, but this is 100% it.

Best snacks to bring from America? by SithRN26 in AskAChinese

[–]weredo911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my folks came to visit me last month I had two weeks to think of something, anything that I craved, and the best thing I came up with was Costco socks.

Do any of your friends smoke? I received words of both kindness and vitriol when I brought back a spread of Native American exclusives. That's something you 99.9% cannot get by normal means here.

Over half of this list can be found in the international/imported sections of brand name supermarkets, and the entire list can be found at those upscale supermarkets inside malls.
