Cooper Bikes, the two-wheel division of the Cooper Car Company, has announced a new range of bikes, due for release this autumn.

The brand was launched at last October's Cycle Show in London and has since enjoyed success with its retro-styled range. The British company's bikes have been exported to 26 countries since launch, and are available from stockists in the USA, China, Japan and Australia.

All of the new models take their name from motor racing tracks on which Cooper cars used to compete.

"With this new line we wanted to introduce a wider range of people to Cooper Bikes," said Cooper chairman Mike Cooper.

"The

T250 Aintree in particular is our first unisex bike, which we hope will

help integrate us into the female market. Also the Aintree and

Zandvoort have five gears and three gears respectively so combine sporty

performance with comfortable urban riding."

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, n exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
