Post by: oldtired on June 10, 2022, 01:15 PM
yo been a while

longest of long shots this but,    did anyone on here buy the stock from Custom Riders when they shut, or knows who did if at all?

Sad to see the shop down after so long  :'(

They didn't have any stock per se.

A while ago they closed up their shop and moved down here to Selsey, with Carlo Griggs taking them under his wing at IMG distribution. So anything they were selling was taken directly out of IMG stock at the warehouse. Thus now that they have closed I would imagine the stock just stays with IMG.

There are only a few distribution places in the UK. Source is one and was tied to Seventies, then you have IMG (Carlo and co) and others such as Moore Large.

That's why a lot of companies selling don't even have the stock. Like, smaller outlets. They ship from either the distro, or the shop will drop ship.

Real shame to see them close, one of the original shops.
