A Big Thanks is in Order!
An arms wide open welcome to our new community sponsor Stans No Tubes. I think we all are familiar with the popularity of running your bike with tubeless tires. The Stans company is to thank for this incredible movement. With dreams of a more efficient mountain bike tire the Stans No Tube company created a truly innovative design to solve one of cyclists biggest woes, a flat tire.
For the first time BBP and Stans are partnering up to help our youth stay on their bikes for longer! Stans donated a whopping 840oz of tire sealant to our youth programing this year. The goal being that when a child receives a bike from BBP the tires will have sealant in them, in hopes of preventing flat tires. In 2021 our Mobile Fix-it unit repaired 749 bikes out on the road. We estimate that 80% of these repairs were flat tires. With the help of Stans we hope that we can reduce the need for flat tire repairs and keep the kids who receive bikes from BBP out rolling for longer.
Stans is truly setting the standard for tubeless tires, and has revolutionized the tire sealant industry! BBP is so excited to continue to work with Stans! If would like more information about Stans, go check out their website.
