More crowdfunding/Shop move info from the shop below!
It's three weeks since our crowdfunding campaign came to an end & we have just about come back down to earth!
A huge thank you to each and every one of you who helped us to smash through our £40,000 target, ending on a final figure of £62,225!!
You may remember that our resident hillbilly Jim swore that if we hit £60,000 he would shave off his magnificent ginger beard... True to his word, Jim went under the knife at our local barbers and had his first shave in more than 10 years! (And his first cut-throat shave ever!!) Good one, Jim. Click here to see the video of the big shave! #shavebrixtoncycles
What happens now? Well, we're busy clearing out the shop ahead of our move in January. We've got tons of stock heavily discounted, so now's a great time to pop in! We'll be revealing our new location soon...
On the crowdfunding side, there were a handful of payments that didn't come through, so we'll be following up on those in the next couple of days, then look out for a survey in your inbox confirming your details for the rewards.
We need EVERYONE to complete the survey in order to deliver your rewards, so please keep an eye out for our email and respond promptly!
In the chaos of packing down one shop and building another, we've realised that this is a less-than-ideal time to have a whole load of extra stock delivered, so we've decided to delay the rewards delivery date until February/March next year, once we're settled. We hope you understand. (Anyone who requires their rewards before Christmas will have the option to receive a gift card in the survey.)
Finally, we're on the lookout for friends of the shop who could help us during the big move! Especially...
People with vans to help move our workshop.
Folks with their own power tools to help us pack down 145 Stockwell Road.
Access to free or cheap storage.
If you think you could help with these or any other skills between January 26-31, please email becks@brixtoncycles.co.uk
For now, we wish you all very happy holidays and we hope Bicycle Santa brings you everything you wish for! ;)
With love & big thanks,
The Brixton Cycles team x
