Velotech Services is set to act as sole distributor for Spin, supplying the UK trade, the firm has revealed.
The brand launched the Spitfire Mk II Super Sportive, Mk III Supermarine titanium bicycles and a range of wheelsets and super lightweight components last month.
The UK designed Spin titanium frames are crafted to high standards from aerospace grade 3Al-2.5V and 6Al-4V titanium alloys in Spin’s own manufacturing facility. The frameset modules are supplied with fork, titanium headset, stem and seat post. All-carbon forks and handlebars are part of each bundle too.
“This is a hugely exciting time for Spin and selecting the right distribution partner is so important,” explained Spin Cycle Works founder Drew Gill. “I feel Spin niches perfectly with Velotech’s other brands, particularly Rotor’s extensive component line.
“It’s all about the ride. The frame and components have been designed to work in harmony and offer the best titanium riding bicycles on the planet. The Mk II has been tuned for all-day sportives and the Mk III is stiffened-up for racing.”
All Spin components and frames are designed and manufactured in-house. Spin’s British-built carbon deep-section wheels are available with clincher or tubular compatible rims. Aluminium rimmed clincher wheels are available too and are built around the same Spin six pawl hubs and laced with DT Swiss spokes. Other components include 45g QRs and 100g one-piece cassettes.
Velotech Services MD Robin Corder added: “Spin is a truly inspiring brand with beautifully engineered products. Spin is perfectly positioned in the marketplace as it offers super high quality titanium framesets and components and very competitive pricing for dealers and their customers.
Spin is immediately available to the trade on Velotech’s new B2B site.”
