From mid-March through the end of July 2009, selected models of the company’s three-wheeled vehicles will be available for trial at 24 events run by local authorities, public health agencies, businesses, schools and universities to promote cycling for the health, fitness and environmental benefits such exercise can deliver (See the tentative schedule of KMX appearances below).

KMX’s first appearance will be on 14th and 15th March in the City of York, which received Cycling City status last December. The aim of York and the 11 other designated Cycling Demonstration Towns in the UK is to get more people cycling more often by running demonstrations and try-outs supported by leading cycle manufacturers.

Former helicopter engineer Barry Smith, the founder of KMX, is delighted that some of his trikes will effectively be “touring” around Britain in the coming months. “We aim to provide anyone who wants to cycle with a safe and sound product which offers excellent value for money and above all – a great deal of fun!”

KMX was started in 2002 by Smith and his wife Yvonne. Today, the company markets seven different models and records sales of some 3,000 trikes a year, with exports to 14 countries including North America and Canada, Europe, Australia and parts of Southeast Asia.

Specifically, the company was named Runner Up Exporter of the Year in the 2008 Business Excellence Awards programme run by one of England’s leading daily local newspapers, The News.

KMX was among 25 companies in southern England cited for their contributions to regional development. Entrants in the Exporter category had to demonstrate that overseas sales were a core constituent of the firm’s success.

Since its start-up, KMX has built the sales of its three-wheeled cycles from an initial order of 300 to 3,000 units per year and today exports to 14 countries covering North America and Canada, Ireland, Continental Europe, Australia and parts of Southeast Asia. In 2003 they won an award for Best New Product  at the International Cycle Show.
