Alimay Sports Cycling Offers


This week in Alimay Sports, we have started our new promotions of putting out exciting new cycling deals for our customers in the UK and Ireland. Each offer is going to focus on simplicity and clear value, as opposed to an increasing amount of complex and minimal sales for cyclists in the UK. Bike Components and Cycling Accessories are going to be the focus of every cycling offer that we put together. Like the first offer that has been launched in the cycling store – buy a pair of Polaris Omnium Bib Cycling Shorts and get 2 Continental Ultra Race Cycling Tyres free! So the current cycling offer gives UK cyclists a chance to get a new pair of cycling shorts, which I guess can fall into the cycling clothing category. Then with that you get a free pair of Continental Ultra Race Tyres, which are in the bicycle components category.

We’re doing the same thing with all of the cycling products in our cycling store, because we are building a convenience cycling store rather than a megastore with items that you may have no interest in. Instead we are building our cycling store to keep stock of the items you buy regularly and in need for riding your bike. This allows us to manage our pricing and give you the best price possible, all the while still giving you the fastest and most convenient delivery times in the UK. By doing this, we aim to make it a cycling store that you can browse easily without being overcome by bicycle items that aren’t relevant to you.

So while we’re only in the early stages of building a product mix that is matched perfectly to the need of UK cyclists, we feel that we can achieve it, and when we do – we then build on the cycling offers that are available to you. In the end, hopefully within 1 year, we will be in a better position so you can find everything you need on our cycling store, and you enjoy the experience of browsing our cycling store, and can do so know that you can rely on us to deliver every order within 2 days everywhere in the UK. Once we’ve reached that point, then we are going to start to offer very narrow lines of the best in class products in the higher price brackets.

We want to do this by building close partnerships with the brands we feel are making the best cycling components in their class. We’ve already started this process with some brands on the higher price range bicycle stuff, but we want to get our lower price range necessities nailed down first, and then move on. So until we reach that point, it will be another post as to how we are coming along in partnering with the best brands on things like bicycles, power meters, wheels, and other expensive items that you don’t change as regular as your tyres or clothes.

We don’t want to blur the lines for cyclists with small discounts on selected products, but with a lot of restrictions on what can and can’t be bought. This is really what is setting the standard for the offers we are going to run really simple offers for cyclists in the UK, with bike components that cyclists want and not just what we want to sell in our online cycling store.

Bike parts and most cycling accessories are now being purchased online as this offers cyclists convenience and cost saving instead of the traditional local bicycle store. The growth of cycling as a sport, hobby or even a way of commuting to work has led to a greater demand for bike parts available online to cyclists.

Buying Bike Parts Online in the UK

As cycling for leisure, travel and health in the UK continues to grow, an increasing number of people prefer to purchase their bike parts and accessories online. The growth in cycling has seen the expansion of bicycle experts e-tailers in the UK, who have responded to this trend by offering discounted, pricing on cycle parts, bicycle clothing, sports nutrition and bike components from all the major brands, where the serious or hobby cyclist can now save up to 60% against high street retailers.

The UK cycling community has been categorised into three main segments, The Occasional Cyclists, The Frequent Cyclists and The Regular Cyclists. When it comes to purchasing bike parts and accessories online, the occasional cyclist tends to purchase the core necessary products such as cycling helmets, pumps and bicycle reflectors, meanwhile the frequent cyclist will also buy cycle clothing, mudguards, brake sets and other accessories while the regular cyclist includes sports nutrition, tyres, specialised cycling components and training accessories in their purchases.
The occasional and frequent cyclists are the most popular type of cycling, with two thirds (66%) of UK cyclists riding at the weekends, either alone or in a group, this also includes general purpose riding, such as going to the shops or visiting friends.

Growing fitness consciousness among people living in the UK, increased energy prices, growing congestion due to increasing population and the number of cars on British roads is fuelling the growth for the online bicycle retailers over the coming years. Cycling as a pleasurable and beneficial leisure activity combined with growing environmental concerns by consumers means bicycles are emerging as an alternative for short distance transport that causes no pollution.. In addition, bicycles' energy efficiency, coupled with cycling as a fitness activity, will help propel demand for bike parts, accessories and sports nutrition from bicycle expert retailers either online or in store.

The UK cycling market has expanded rapidly over the past couple of years and is now worth over £2.15 billion, new research suggests. So no matter what category of cyclist you fall into, no matter how much or little you spend on your bike parts and bicycle accessories, you will probably save 30-60% on purchases by looking online.
