Bike buddy fittings
« on: October 06, 2024, 09:05:20 PM »
Hello,

Some ne'er do well stole my bike buddy bottle holder, even took the time to unscrew my "grommets" from the frame.

It seems that the company (in fact a chap in his garage) has stopped trading, else has been forced off of the Internet.

The bike buddy is a brilliant system for rattle free attachment of a fuel bottle underneath the down tube.  If anyone has a spare that they are not using, I will honour any (sensible) price.

Cheers

Danneaux

I'm afraid I don't have one, but a quick search of my link files turned up a last known email address for the maker...

enquiries@bikebuddy.co.uk

BIKEBUDDY SALES - Greenleys, Woodgreen Road, Waltham Abbey, Essex, EN9 3SD           Tel / Fax: 01992 762817

The domain for the mail may not be active, but still worth a shot in the dark, methinks, to see if he has any remaining stock available. Even a one-off might get you back up and running.

The website's sales page was active through 18 January 2022.

I did turn up a UK listing for Bornel Engineering associated with Bike Buddy, but that firm shows as dissolved in 2011 according to company listings.

So sorry for the loss of yours! Aggravating, grrr!

Best, Dan.
