Mark McCance has been installed as managing director at Islabikes.

Bringing expertise in ecommerce with an impressive track record leading SME businesses to greater success – most notably ProBikeKit.com – McCance will provide support to company founder Isla Rowntree during the next steps of the business’s growth.

Islabikes was established in 2006 with the mission to deliver a better experience of cycling for children. The brand is well known for its quality, lightweight, proportionally designed bikes.

McCance said: “I’m very excited about joining such a success story in the bike trade. Islabikes has genuinely redefined the formative cycling experience for children with a relentless focus on quality and intelligent design combined with a rare commitment to values and ethics that always put the customer first. I’m looking forward to moving Islabikes into its next phase of business growth.”

Isla Rowntree added: “I’m delighted to have brought Islabikes to this point and really pleased to welcome Mark’s wealth of knowledge to the business.”

Islabikes lightweight children’s bikes range from a balance bike ideal for a child’s second birthday to a racing bike for the aspiring Olympian. www.islabikes.co.uk
