Raleigh Heron show returns this February

Raleigh’s Heron trade exclusive show is set to return to the firm’s Nottingham headquarters from February 9th to 11th.

New parts and accessories labels will be one of the highlights for dealers checking in, with brand additions including OTE Sports, JVC cameras and Burley Trailers. New products are also expected from Dahon, Vaude, Schwalbe, Michelin, Uvex, Squire, Galius, Lusso, New Loox, Unior, RSP, XLC and many more.

Raleigh’s parts and accessories manager Paul Cooke said: "We’ve had a hugely positive year on our accessories business and we’ve certainly seen a boost from access we’ve had to Accell Group products, which we’re continuing to bring through this coming year.

"We’re confident that we can bring one of the widest portfolios of exciting new brands. This show will give many dealers their first taste of what’s to come."

A training ride alongside Team Raleigh will take place on the Sunday for dealers looking to go for a spin on the latest bike launches. Among the new bikes, raleigh will show HaiBike’s several new 700c Xduro ebikes.

One-to-one presentations will discuss the Raleigh Rewards programme, Raleigh TV in-store consoles, My Shop Online, our B2B ordering and Raleigh Service Centre status, among other support programmes on offer to dealers.
