As part of the strategic move, Pilo has strengthened its partnership with Komimi Bikestuff, its exclusive distributor in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Komimi Bikestuff sells Pilo's products in more than 1,000 stores and through the company's e-commerce site.

Pilo, which has a presence in France, the UK, Portugal, Brazil, New Zealand, Italy, Spain and the US, retails its products on Amazon and eBay. Through Komimi Bikestuff, it sells more than 370 different types of rear derailleur hangers.

Specifically designed to match all major bicycle frames, Pilo's hangers are made of top quality materials such as 6061-T651 aerospace aluminum and are offered in a wide variety of colors.

"Awareness among German bike riders of the importance of owning a spare hanger is on the rise and now they can get superb CNC machined derailleur hangers," said CEO of Komimi Bikestuff Christian Berndt.

"Riders realize that a broken or bent hanger can force them to stop riding and more and more are acquiring an extra derailleur hanger, just as they keep a spare inner tube."

"The German market is developing fast and demand for Pilo's products is on the rise, especially among mountain bikers," said Hila Pilo, co-owner of Pilo. "I am sure that the proven quality of our products and the fact that we stock the largest collection of hangers can benefit bike riders and stores."

Komimi Bikestuff will present Pilo's products at the "Abgefahren" die Messe für Rad und Triathlon 2013 Bike Fair, which will take place in Leipzig November 22-24, 2013.

The event, which is aimed at triathlon athletes, bikers and other athletes, will present an excellent opportunity for all sportsmen interested in biking to closely examine the quality of Pilo products.
