Capgo has earned a notable reputation in the cycling industry, positioning themselves as one of the main European OE suppliers for its products.
Alex Wiseman, sales manager at VeloBrands, said: “We’re excited to be the new home of Capgo , the range will be aimed at workshops rather than retail, with very competitive pricing.
