About this deal

Ask the young people about how they view their future and whether they'll be able to buy a house on an average wage. Statement from Andrew Lang, company founder "This was an incredibly difficult decision to make, particularly as we have a development pipeline of new products, but it was personally important to me to wind operations down whilst the company is still solvent and without owing creditors. I'm having to press pause for now to take some time away and evaluate what form Cycloc might be able to take in the future." Underlining that the company remained committed to making its products in the UK, he said: “"It is very disappointing. I am a naturally optimistic person, but in a sense it is very difficult to be positive. We have about half a dozen products in the pipeline that are in a very advanced stage but we've not been able to commit the capital to bring those to the market yet because of the other Brexit costs and problems we’ve been confronted with.” The British Library has supported more than 540 ambitious London-based innovators, entrepreneurs and disruptors reach the next level through their Innovating for Growth programme since its launch in 2012.

I'd say that the bus slogan was more than just ambiguous - it was even denied to ever exist according to at least one person that was photographed alongside the same bus. Dan, who has worked on working on premium residential projects for more than 15 years, says he believes selling Cycloc products via architects or developers, particularly volume developers, ‘has legs’. Wall-mounted bicycle storage firm Cycloc is to cease production, with its founder citing the impact of Brexit as one of the principal reasons for the decision. I don't believe that everyone who voted Remain is acting like a spoilt child - most of us would be happy to see some tangible benefits from the whole Brexit fiasco and would be prepared to say "you know what, maybe it was a good idea but certainly not because of the reasons given before the vote". However, we are yet to see any benefits that I know of - let me know if you find any. The paperwork is also incredible. To begin with, some of the countries wanted the paperwork in their language. Now we send them a commercial invoice with a whole lot of customs information. Plus, it's four or five times we have to print it.As most of you will be aware the last few years of trading have been extremely challenging for the cycling industry, something we have not been immune to. We have faced rising operation costs alongside negative impacts of COVID and increased barriers to selling in the EU as a result of Brexit, something that has been magnified by our wish to continue to manufacture in the UK. All this resulted in the realisation we need to move our focus away from Europe as our principal market to other markets across the globe, such as the US, and to be more agile as to who is our ultimate customer.” I agree but suspect that the right have crushed more than just British business these last thirteen years. Still they can't crush hope...can they? https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/aug/26/right-to-buy-margaret-thatcher-david-cameron-housing-crisis Brexit has torpedoed some of that business, but if you are able to break into the market in America direct to customer as Andrew has done, then there is strong potential there for the future.”

D’Maris Coffman, the director of the Bartlett school of sustainable construction at University College London said Covid and the energy crisis had also driven up costs. “On balance, I would agree that Covid is the least of the three, probably a fifth all told, and that Brexit and the energy crisis are probably about two-fifths each, about 40% each,” she said. Keeping your bike steady and safe against your wall, either balanced on your floor or hung high and out of the way, the impressive Cycloc mount uses a hook and pad system to let your bike take pride of place in your garage, apartment or living room. Attaching to your wall with a four-point fixing system, this sturdy two-piece holder is built from a glass-reinforced polypropylene, equipped with rubber inserts which protect the paintwork of both your bike and your support.Last week a thinktank estimated Brexit had led to a shortfall of 330,000 in the UK labour force, mostly in the low-skilled sectors. He said it was “very difficult to be positive” about the situation, citing “Kafkaesque” rules introduced for trading with EU member states. One of the things that is quite disappointing about this whole process is that from the outset, we made an active decision to manufacture in the UK. We've remained faithful to that and it feels as though the UK government hasn’t necessarily helped us. I don't remember seeing that particular forecast - I'd take it as a plus if house prices were to be reduced (and I do own my own house). It is very disappointing. I am a naturally optimistic person, but in a sense it is very difficult to be positive," he said.

However, Lang outlined how business has been affected by Brexit, saying it is disappointing to have lost out having "remained faithful" to manufacturing in the UK. On the demand side the failure to provide a rational system for economic migration aligned to our national interest is a clear failure of government. The old idea that we need more people to boost our industrial output is not very convincing given the automation that is usual in manufacturing.In a statement, company founder Andrew Lang, who is also its principal designer, said: “This was an incredibly difficult decision to make, particularly as we have a development pipeline of new products, but it was personally important to me to wind operations down whilst the company is still solvent and without owing creditors. Andrew says the firm is now – in addition to its existing direct customer market – building an active strategy focussed on built-environment stakeholders.
