Picking up a Brompton today.
Was umming and ahing, and was offered a major discount by 2 shops willing to order it for me, but the lead times are fairly long.
Then I walked into Cycle Surgery in Holborn yesterday and they had exactly the config I was looking for, the red 3SL.
They also give the LCC discount on the bike, which surprised me as I thought that they wouldn't on brands where they had lower margins (like Campagnolo, Brompton, etc).
So 10% off thanks to LCC and Cycle Surgery, and the exact Brompton I wanted available immediately.
I could get it cheaper if I wanted to wait weeks for it, but the savings then are negligible.
The only issue now is that I'm damned if I know where I keep my LCC info, I thought BC would cover it but apparently not (and I also don't know where I keep that). Is knowing your membership number enough?
