UK dealer network sought for Chapter2 Bikes

Thursday, 3 March 2022 Mark Sutton

The Chapter2 Bikes brand will now recruit a network of high-end bike shops to sell its framesets.

Handling the UK distribution business, Mark Downie of ADVNTR told CI.N: “We are looking for around 20 dealers across the UK. There is no large commitment necessary and the terms are 30 days from delivery with an additional 10% off for any frameset bought for store demo. As we are the distributor at ADVNTR we will handle the payments.”

Under the DEK banner, The ADVNTR Group recently added a B2B platform providing streamlined purchasing and media content to onward customers.

The announcement comes in tandem with the reveal on the Chapter2 Koko frameset, a Toray carbon built, wind-tunnel developed chassis that has recently begun to rack up reviews.

Chapter2 had to say of the follow up to its RERE model: “Taking the RERE’s Aero credentials to the next level, the KOKO now has Kamm-Tail incorporated into the downtube, increasing the overall stiffness of the bottom bracket and headtube by 13.35% and 35.64% respectively. Married to our aerodynamically optimised and ergonomic MANA bar, the combination makes for a super sleek high-performance racing machine.”

Each KOKO frames front triangle is moulded using a one-piece Latex Mandrel. The use of a Latex Mandrel for each size ensures that the pre-preg carbon wall thickness and resin flow is carefully controlled during production.

The use of High-Tensile Directional Toray Carbon in bottom bracket and headtube increases front triangle torsional stiffness. The combination of both these processes improves the frames overall performance.

By integrating the cabling and hydraulic hoses the KOKO presents a clean visual and aerodynamic profile. The fork crown blends with the headtube contributing to the seamless elegance.

When used with the Chapter2 MANA Bar the full aerodynamic benefits of the KOKO are unlocked. Plus it’s practical with a system of Quick-Fit spacers permitting easy adjustment of bar height and quick disassembly should your customer wish to travel with their KOKO.
