Cambrian Tyres confirms it is continuing with bicycle tyre distribution

Following trade speculation, Cambrian Tyres has confirmed it will continue to offer bicycle tyres to the UK trade, alongside its thriving motorcycle tyre business which supplies 12 brands to the UK motorcycle market, many being exclusive to the company.

Cambrian was the exclusive UK importer of Continental bicycle tyres between 1989 & 2025. With Continental moving away from the importer to multi-wholesaler model in June this year, now focusing on a direct to sole wholesaler supply.

“We believe that Continental have been looking at ways to which to have a more direct approach in key markets for some time, and whilst we might not agree on this approach, we respect their decision moving forward. In fact this gives us the opportunity to grow our cycling portfolio with several approaches from other brands already received,” explained Cambrian Tyres Cycle Ltd Managing Director Neville Evans.

“We’ve contributed hugely to Continental’s success in the UK, through a variety of partners in an ever-changing market place over the past few decades. Successful distribution requires a high level of investment and understanding of market requirements, not least in stock holding. As Europe’s largest supplier of 2-wheel tyre products, we have thrived by having the correct lines in the warehouse all year round, lots of them and at the best prices. We will continue to seek opportunities to grow our cycling portfolio, added Evans.

Cambrian Tyres launched its own B2B service in 2023 and serves over 800 accounts directly with Goodyear and Continental tyres & tubes, with over 1,000 SKUs listed from both brands.
