Monday, 1 August 2022 Mark Sutton

Stan’s NoTubes is to be taken on by Raleigh UK following the imminent closure of long-term distributor Paligap.

Raleigh will take on UK and Ireland distribution of the tubeless specialist label, complimenting the distributor’s other wheel products. A pioneer of tubeless technologies, with 21 years under its belt, Stan’s NoTubes is credited with playing a big part in the development of the tubeless marketplace.

“We’d like to thank Paligap for their efforts and contributions to representing Stan’s NoTubes over the past 10+ years. They have been a great partner and we wish David Lane and the whole Paligap crew all the best in their future endeavours. With all change comes opportunity and we’re delighted to partner with Raleigh and their distribution network in the UK and Ireland. Raleigh’s long-term strategy aligns perfectly with our own vision for wholesale distribution. Their ability to build brand value and support their dealers made them an obvious choice. We feel that Raleigh UK’s sales, marketing, and wheel building capabilities nicely compliment the programs we currently have in place and offer unique opportunities to expand Stan’s presence in the market,” Clayton Goldsmith, Sales Manager EMEA at Stan’s.

“We’re excited to bring Stan’s NoTubes into the Raleigh portfolio of Brands. We’ve followed the success of Stan’s for many years, from being the makers of the tubeless market through to their continuous development of globally recognised wheels. During, what is an exciting time for both businesses, with strong focus on growing strategic relationships that we can gain together feels like the perfect fit,” added Peter Hunt, Head of Brands and Marketing, Raleigh.

From tubeless sealant to custom builds – dealers will be given access to a wide range of resources and encouraged to be pro-active in presenting opportunities for collaboration with the Stan’s brand in the market – whether that be via promotions or activations for the brand – through social media, in-store activation, and online representation.

Stock is expected to be available from Raleigh and live for ordering via the Raleigh B2B during August.
