Easton-Bell Sports has ended its relationship with its longtime U.K. distributor, Madison.
The California company said it is seeking a "new partner better suited to the longer-term needs of its business and the retailers it serves," and said it would announce an agreement with a "leading cycling distributor in the U.K. and Ireland."
The new distributor will take over starting July 1, 2013 and will handle distribution of Giro, Easton Cycling, Bell and Blackburn brands.
