Weekender: New brands boost online cycling store

Following its launch late last year, Leeds-based online cycling store Spin Shed has just added another five names to its retail line-up.

The website, which launched with 12 brands in late 2017, now stocks products from more than 20 different suppliers from around the world.

The new brands to join the Shin Shed collection are apparel and artwork brands Victory Chimp and Coborn, insurer Bikmo, children’s cycle clothing specialist Hup, and acclaimed cycling book, France en Velo.

Co-founder of Spin Shed, Katie Barwood, said: “We’ve almost doubled the number of brands we stock since we launched just six months ago, and we’re now really proud of the range and variety we have online. The idea behind Spin Shed was to give cyclists a better choice of independent and stylish brands, and help them express their individuality.

“Amongst our offer, we now have five brands who create cycling inspired artwork; fifteen who stock stylish and individual apparel, including a great range of casualwear; as well as insurance, luggage, books and even a coffee for cyclists.”
