The new factory is to be built on stilts in a 100-acre wetland in Ashford, Kent. It will produce 200,000 bikes per year and be completed in 2027. The current London factory will keep running until 2030. Will Butler-Adams said the company needs more space as it has grown 17% for the past 18 years, and London is too expensive. The new site is close to Europe ports & has space to expand production.

New innovation sees underground
Using quantum physics and gravity the new invention can see items buried underground for applications in detecting sinkholes, pipes and tunnels to avoid hitting them or digging in the wrong places.
The world’s first quantum gravity gradiometer was developed by Birmingham University funded by a £6m grant from Innovate UK.
Currently three out of every five holes drilled for roadworks are in the wrong place so the new invention could save a lot of time and money.
