Not joking, it'll likely be on't net somewhere.
The production facility in Melksham; a few miles down the road from me, was never that big for bike tyres. I had a tour round it about 12 years ago and was surprised how small capacity the bike tyre dept was even then.
I suppose you need to do deals to be the OEM Fitment on new bikes to get and retain volumes. I can't recall seeing many or any newbikes fitted with Avon tyres in recent years.
