Hi Adrian

If I were you I'd pose the question on the forum pages of Bicycle and cycling retail news | Bikebiz

This is a site that all of the UK bicycle movers and shakers subscribe to and one which I always posed questions on and got great responses from.

There is also a lot of content on the site that should be of use to you.

Let me know how you get on

Hi Andrew,
Eeyore (pete) suggested I contact you as you have some inside dealings with the cycle industry, I dont know if this is still current.
I am looking to set up a business/social enterprise incorporating env education and cycling to keep it simple. I would like to contact cycle manufacturers but only seem to be able to find importers and stockists. I want ask for some sponsorship, I know this may be difficult in the current fianicial climate. nothing ventured nothing gained.
Do you have any details of contacts within the major manufacturers or addresses i may use. it is very difficult it seems to get direct contact. thank you ofr your time

cheers

Adrian
