 David Cramer, Managing Director
David is one of the most successful and respected figures in the Australian Cycling industry after nearly twenty years involvement in both retail and wholesale. David grew up with the advantage of the experience and industry respect gained by his parents, Maurie and Norma, who were proprietors of the iconic Melbourne bicycle store, Cecil Walker Cycles. Sadly, Maurie has since passed, but David has since taken on his father's drive, determination, good judgement and love for the industry, to help him build a business that is respected as much overseas in Europe and Asia as it is here in Australia.
Born of the old CWC imports, David made the move to create his own importing and wholesaling company around ten years ago and for many years worked almost as a one-man band, making him very much the face and figurehead of Bikesportz Imports.
Now with the help of a growing, professional team, David continues to drive the company forward, whether it be from the wing-backed chair of his sweeping Braeside office, hands-on out in the expansive warehouse, or at the trade shows and board rooms of some of the most famous bike brands in the world. Occasionally Norma still brings him a packed lunch.
 Jonathon Nunan, National Sales & Marketing Manager
Jonathon joined Bikesportz in 2002 shortly after returning to Australia from a six year stint working and racing in the UK. There he most recently worked for Jim Walker & Co., one of Britain's leading bicycle and p&a wholesaler, distributors (somewhat similar to Bikesportz Imports), as a Sales Rep for two years, where he covered territories in the North, Midlands, East Anglia, the South West and Wales. At the same time, Jonathon also worked as a presenter on Granada Television's Lifestyle network, mainly appearing on their shopping channel as an outdoor, fitness and cycling expert.
Jonathon's time in the bike industry commenced in 1997 when he started working at the famous Manchester bike shop, Harry Hall Cycles. There he helped to re-build their famous reputation for road and touring bikes and as the leading cycle specialists in the North of England. Jonathon is a mad cycling fan, almost always immersed in facts, figures and gossip from cycling magazines, websites and hours spent talking up how good a track rider he used to be with anyone who'll listen at 'Cafe Racer' in St Kilda.
Always more keen than talented on the bike, Jonathon somehow manged to win national medals on the track both here in Australia and in the UK, including a British Championship in 2000.
Today, he concentrates his energies on leading an enthusiastic and professional team of Sales Reps and in-house Sales Consultants here at Bikesportz, with the aim of building a group of proactive business partners for the Australian Bicycle Retail Industry. He still occasionally manages to ride his Bianchi to work, when the weather is fine and the wind is blowing in the right direction.
