• I noticed that parts like frames, rivets, and others have been 'out of stock' for a couple of years now. Initially, I assumed they were just waiting for a new shipment — but I was wrong!

    From what I see on their website, it looks like anything older than a Cambium model has been abandoned. There must be millions of these older products still in use, representing a huge market opportunity. Please tell me I'm mistaken!

  • I bought a replacement tension bolt the other day, loads of places had them

  • Yeah I bought a tension bolt recently too, wasn’t difficult to come by at all.

    I’ve heard of people getting other parts replaced ‘on warranty’, not very recently right enough, but always assumed that retail price on anything other than a tension bolt was going to be so high that it wouldn’t be worthwhile doing anyway.

  • They used to sell saddle frames for most models in chrome, black and even Ti for some, along with copper rivets in regular and large head sizes. And the chrome frame for a Professional was £17 !

    They offer a repair service, but you may as well buy a new saddle for the cost of most work.

    For spares, this is all you can get now, it's 99% for the Cambiums : https://www.brooksengland.com/maintenance/spare-parts.html
