A worn out rubbish bike!

Hey, I am about to buy a Brompton through Evans (I get discount there through work, else I would go elsewhere).

They are currently offering a trade in scheme and will accept any bike. I was wondering if anyone had an old bike stuck behind a shed, up in the loft, in the corner of the garage they'd like to dispose of? Happy to collect and willing to pay.

It doesn't need to be rideable nor even have two wheels.

Let me save you a trip to the dump! Thanks!

haha - I thought about doing this recently - good to see a like minded soul
try freecycle - lots of people offload absolute shitbag bikes there

Ha. All good ideas. I will try freecycle.

Well the Brompton is £1000 so they give you £100 off. Its a scale that increases with the price of the bike. 10% discount not to be scoffed at!

I've got a bike you could have, but I'm outside London. Not that far, mind.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
