TI Reynolds 531

From Graces Guide

1986 TI Group established the company as a subsidiary to hold part of the manufacturing activities of TI Reynolds

1996 Coyote Sports Inc. acquired TI Reynolds 531 Ltd. and renamed the company Reynolds Cycle Technology Ltd.

1999 Coyote Sports Inc. filed for Chapter 11 but the UK-based Reynolds continued operations on metallic tubing. Reynolds Composites LLC in California started production of carbon fibre forks.

2000 A management buy-out led by Keith Noronha. Reynolds Composites LLC remains a separate entity based in CA, USA. Manufacturing of metallic products continues at the Tyseley facility. The company is named Reynolds Cycle Technology (2000) Ltd.

2006 The company is renamed Reynolds Technology Ltd. to reflect the increasing revenues from diversification into tubing outside the cycle industry.

2007 After 90 years at Redfern Road, the company moves to a modern factory building in Shaftmoor Lane, Birmingham. The new “953” stainless maraging steel range becomes commercially available to builders – perhaps the hardest material in the bike industry at over 1800 MPa tensile strength.
