ZyroFisher to distribute Leatt's new GRiTT bike care range
ZyroFisher adds GRiTT by Leatt bike care line to its distribution portfolio.
French manufacturer Black Bearing is looking for a UK distributor to expand its bearing and e-bike motor refurbishment kit sales.
French component maker Black Bearing is actively seeking a distributor in the United Kingdom to support growth of its product range, which includes bicycle bearings, bottom brackets, e-bike motor refurbishment kits, and technical components. The company was founded in Brittany in 2012 and develops products tailored to cycling demands.
The move comes as bike technologies evolve, and Black Bearing aims to strengthen its presence in the UK market. For European dealers, this could mean a new source for aftermarket bearings and motor repair parts, potentially reducing reliance on existing supply chains.
The search for a UK distributor suggests Black Bearing sees opportunity in the region's e-bike service market. Motor refurbishment kits are a niche but growing segment, as dealers look to extend the life of e-bike motors rather than replace entire units.
Details on volumes, pricing, or lead times were not disclosed. Dealers interested in the range should monitor announcements from Black Bearing or potential distribution partners in the coming months.
For European dealers, this could open a new supply line for e-bike motor refurbishment kits and bearings, potentially lowering landed costs if distribution is efficient. Monitor for UK distributor announcements to assess availability and pricing before committing to stock.
Bike Europe charges for this. We do not. We publish the industry brief free because our business is the assembly line in Plovdiv, not a subscription.
