OUR STORY:
MALCOLM
RATHMELL SPORT LTD was formed in January 1991 as a wholesale mail order
business in the specialised field of off-road trials motorcycles, accessories
and spare parts.
It is run
by Malcolm, Rhoda & Martin Rathmell and is a close knit family business.
Daughter Carly is also part of the business. The business is operated through a
large dealer network throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland and they
have built up an extremely close relationship with all of them.
Malcolm
Rathmell was himself a Multi-champion, winning the Trans America title in 1974
(The following year renamed the World Championship), British Trials
Championship six times between 1971-81, six times Scott Trial winner and the
SSDT twice. After retiring from his chosen profession Malcolm and Rhoda bought and
ran a very successful hotel in Grassington from 1982-89, before returning to
become involved commercially in the sport that they both love.
Certainly
Malcolm’s name brought them the valuable contacts necessary to set up with the
best products. Starting as Importers of Aprilia trials bikes in 1991, they then
took on Scorpa in 1994 to 1999 and then the French built trials & enduro
bike Bultaco which later became Sherco up until the factory went direct to all
dealer in November 2023. Along with being the importers for the complete Gaerne
Off Road Boots, Airoh Off Road Helmets, Suomy/KYT Off Road Helmets, Shiro
Trials Helmets, Kini clothing, Galfer Brake Pads & Discs, AJP/Braktec
accessories, RQF, Clice Clothing, Michelin Tyres, Forcefield Body Armour,
Airmousse, Domino, Leonelli, Rock Oil, Milwaukee Power Tools, Polar fitness
watches and Innovv motorcycle cameras.
Through
the years they have developed a key team of riders from the very lowest level
to the highest. Former riders of MRS include World Enduro Champion Stefan
Merriman, multi British Trials Champion Steve Saunders, five times British
Trials Champion Graham Jarvis, nine times World Ladies Champion Emma Bristow,
plus a team of National and British Championship riders in trials and
enduro.
