The UK Bike Market 2003 – 2005 (x 1,000 units) Year__________2003____2004____2005 Imports_______3,500___3,500____3,300 Production_____325_____250_____135 Consumption____2,500___3,500___3,300 Looks like UK bike production is coming to an end.
Theres a company near me that makes bikes and sells them. The name is Langdale Lightweights. If i had the money then i would have one. A few riders around here have them, but i think i was told the cheapest one they do is about £800. They look good and i think they custom make them and take your measurements down on a bike they have that extends and stuff.
Mickle, whilst bowing to your superior knowledge, were only 3,300 bikes imported in 2005? That's less than 64 a week! I'll bet it'll only take a couple of branches of Halfords to deal with that number!
they would of gone down this year with all the rain. When i was working in the bike shop all the reps where saying sale's where down by 27% overs where saying upto 31%? so its going to be a lot i think.
Don't worry because production of an historic east Midlands brand is soon to begin again on the site of the original factory
Couldn't possibly say old chap. I haven't decided when the launch will be, yet. But they were not based in the 'N' town.
