Sale Details Made Simple

Featured by Trophy Bikes, posted in Uncategorized

So, for the first time since we began selling Bromptons (2003!), Brompton is having a true sale. Our friends in London have knocked 20% off all C Line and C Line Electric bikes. Translation: a standard M6L (our most popular model) sells for $1400 – you’d have to go back to 2011 to get a Brompton for that price–until now.

Yes, the number of Bromptons available to us is limited, um, all sales are final, and sorry, we can’t combine this with other discounts, etc. etc.! Please don’t tarry–this promo ends Nov. 31.

Please contact us (info at trophybikes dot com) with any questions or come on through the shop – OPEN Wed.-Sat., Noon-6 p.m., at 133 S. 23rd St., conveniently close to SEPTA, Patco, NJT, Amtrak and the Schuylkill River Bike Trail (take Locust or JFK exits!). We are an actual bike shop and we do not ship Bromptons; all sales in person, please and thank you.

BROMPTONS UNDER BROAD STREET!

by Trophy Bikes, posted in AD HOC RIDES, Brompton Bicycle, Events, Philly Free Streets

This Saturday, 11 August, we invite Brompton bike riders to join us in a “top-down” tour of the Philly Free Streets day.  Philly Free Streets, now in its 3rd year, will turn Broad Street, from City Hall to Erie Avenue, into a car-free zone from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

BUBS4

NOTE: We will meet, RAIN or SHINE! • If it’s like, BIBLICAL RAIN, we may just take the subway to Erie Avenue and hang out, then subway back and retreat to La Colombe or even FERGIES PUB. So, please bring a jacket and be flexible; that’s the beauty of riding a Brompton, the world’s best folder bicycle. 

Our event will take advantage of the Brompton’s unique fold to take SEPTA up to the north end of Open Streets.  We will meet at La Colombe Coffee Penn Square, on the SW  corner of City Hall at 10 a.m. sharp. First, a quick lap around City Hall, then down into a cool, rumbling Broad Street subway car, which will rocket us to Broad and Erie in 16 minutes!

We’ll unfold and pedal back down 100% car-free North Broad Street to City Hall (4.6 miles, easy pace, lots of stops for photos) …and maybe a post-ride beverage at nearby Fergie’s Pub.

The ride is FREE (please bring $2.50 or your SEPTA KEY for the subway trip), but because of space considerations–Brompton bikes only, please.   • •   RSVP to info@trophybikes.com with BUBS in the subject line to help us know how many Brompton riders to expect. THANKS!

 

PS–SAVE THE DATE: Sept. 9th THE BROMPTON BURST– BROMPTON RACING IN BEAUTIFUL DOYLESTOWN PA. We will ride a special BROMPTON CAR on SEPTA to this event. Go to:  http://buckscountyclassic.com/races/brompton  for all the details!

BLACK EDITION BROMPTONS ARE HERE!

by Trophy Bikes, posted in Brompton Bicycle, Featured Item

THE NEW BLACK EDITION BROMPTONS  HAVE ARRIVED IN OUR SHOWROOM.

We have ordered most of them with the new Black Lacquer, a smokey finish that cloaks the steel, while still letting it peek through.  There is no way to get the full effect of this other than in person.  We’re here from 8 a.m to 6 p.m. weekdays and 10-4 Sat. and Sun.

We have Black Edition Bromptons in M, H and S bar configurations, so please do let us know what you’re looking for.
