Goodyear returns to bicycle industry

Goodyear returns to bicycle industry

After being absent from the cycle tyre industry since 1976 – Goodyear has announced its comeback.

40+ years absenteeism is not holding them back, as the company already announced UK and Ireland distributors and a range of nine different tyre models.

The new Goodyear bicycle range was developed in partnership with Rubber Kinetics LLC. Rubber Kinetics is a new start-up business run by cycling industry master Luke Musselman. The new models are;

  • Eagle All-Season
  • Newton
  • Escape
  • Transit Tour
  • Transit Speed
  • County
  • Connector
  • Newton ST
  • Peak

This is a major entry into the market for Goodyear, as there are more than 100 stock keeping units spread across the British islands.
