I believe that there was a dealer named McGrath Cycles (Eddie McGrath Cycles?) who was the U.K. distributor of Dugast and it seems that they stocked some of wider Dugast offerings. This was approx 3 years ago, so this might have changed. Good luck.

All the dealers I have tried only carry tubs in the more common 22/23mm sizes. I'd like to find a UK dealer that carries a similar range to the one available from worldclasscycles.com

Many thanks.
