News: Velotech Distribute ‘Close the Gap’ Products

Stratford upon Avon based Velotech Services, known for distributing high end technical products such as ROTOR, C-Bear Bearings and Parlee bikes as well as their Rotor Racing Team, are the new partners for ‘CloseTheGap’ products; innovative accessories from hidden bells to integrated lights in mudguards.

Mathijs Wagenaar, founder of CloseTheGap, has been riding bikes practically all his life and after his racing career, Mathijs became an editor for the Dutch cycling magazine Fiets. In an attempt to increase safety and mutual respect among cyclists and multi-use trail users, he came up with the idea of a bell that was so cool that people would want to have it. A bell on a city bike is standard but on a racing bike it is usually a no-go, but ‘CloseTheGap’ have got around the aesthetics by integrating the bell discretely into the out-front computer mount.

Furthermore, to establish the brand CloseTheGap, they are now sponsors of World Tour Team JUMBO VISMA.

Robin Corder, CEO of Velotech Services “I came across these products back in 2020 and was immediately taken by the simplicity of the technology which fits into our portfolio of premium technology brands and our mission of making these products available and simple to understand. Our work in 2021 thus far has been to offer short educational videos, pullouts and information for the retailer that might need a shoulder to lean on. We hope that this support goes some way to show that we are all on the same team.”
