Paligap has today released news that the Stan’s NoTubes Dart has sold all its first shipment of UK stock, in less than three days after its official launch.
“This is a testament to the design and innovation of Stan’s NoTubes’ products and its design engineers, that it (Stan’s NoTubes) develops products to work in everyday scenarios and don’t just add certain product categories to try and capitalise on market trends, it remains a true innovator and this has been reflected on the take up of the Dart,” said Stan’s NoTubes’ brand manager at Paligap.
The Dart uses a patented feather coated dart with a special chemical that reacts with the sealant to repair the damage in milliseconds. It is suitable for all types of cyclists and was designed and tested in the United States:
“Backorders are now being taken on the next shipment and looking at how the Dart has been received by IBDs, I am confident that this will sell out very quickly too,” said the Paligap brand team.
Paligap announced earlier this year that IBDs that had signed up to the Stan’s NoTubes POS programme had seen an average increase in sales of tubeless products of around 59% on the previous year. As the number of shops having the Stan’s NoTubes POS unit installed exceeds 250, together with the release of the revised wheel programme, the IBD offering continues to evolve to ensure it matches the IBD requirements, Paligap has said.
