Condor Closing? Moving?

I cycled passed Condor this morning and I glimpsed out of the corner of my eye a "closing down" sign in the window. Anyone know any more info? Is the sale any good?

Sale?!?!,
maybe they've been recessioned.

if i could find my binoculars i'd look out the window and find out

Looked normal this morning when I went in.

They're expanding to the shop on the left as you look at it.

ah an expanding sale..

they make too much money to close down, poor folk

I think under the big words "closing down" it says something like "nah, that made you look, not likely, ha ha ha."

doh ! i had dreams of cheap hetchins frames becoming available

The little shop next door is where they're putting all the Rapha gear.

I hear they're going to paper the walls with gold leaf ;)

Entry is invite only.

that is way to small for me to see when I'm travelling past.

I'm there. Do I actually need anything? Fuck it, I'll find something.

hope not, I like them

hope not I like their shop

you really are trying hard^^

Is the new shop the one that currently has the Rouleur photo exhibition in it? (worth checking out BTW)

How does one qualify to be served in Condor?

Secret wink

That's where I must have gone wrong. Personally I wouldn't give money to the rather snottish mob in there. Mosquito, Cyclefit or one of the small independents welcome customers.

Er, I get the green hetchins Dicki, if it were ever to happen Grant would sell it to me... ;)
I've asked at least 10 times in the past 4 years. (and its my size hehehe)

cliveo, it is all about the money flash at Condor... lol
having said that, I have heard people complain before but they have always bent over backward to help me over the years...except they won't sell me the green hetchins. ;(

At Cyclefit, you need cash to flash but it is more about riding the very best and they are keen to enthuse you and are extremely helpful and make even the most humble cyclists (like me) feel part of their community. Mosquito are very pleasant and helpful, even if one is only buying spare inner tubes. Condor is, like their bikes, are all about posing and not much about cycling.

I just went there. I can't see anything on sale that isn't usually on sale tbh

Why do bike shops never have sales on practical stuff like inner tubes and spokey dokes? HMM?
