High end carbon fibre wheel specialists Lightweight are to redirect their focus in the UK market towards independent dealers.

The German manufacturer - renowned for their high build quality and balance of stiffness, light weight, aerodynamics and durability - previously concentrated their efforts through online distributor Wiggle.

But in a change of tack they are set to develop a nationwide network of Lightweight IBD (Independent Bicycle Dealers) Stores. It has not yet been revealed which stores will carry the Lightweight brand, but we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
