Been searching for a Brompton and this site seems to have lots at very good prices. They don’t seem to answer the phone and can’t seem to find any mention on the internet other than their website.
Anybody heard of them or dealt with them?
thanks for help.

If it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
Brompton are very particular about who sells their bikes and at what price, check the dealer list on their website

However, regarding phoning, the website does say that it‘s better to contact them online/by email as most staff are way due to covid

As above, and the rented offices/address looks temporary ... Wouldn't expect it to end well.

There are 6,039 companies registered at that address and none of them are " Ryder Clothing Limited" which is the name they refer to themselves in their T&Cs.

I am not sure I would part with my money at this point, they do have a phone number but discourage you to ring it and for some reason suggest their workshop is closed due to restrictions.

Ryder Clothing Limited (mentioned in their T's & C's) isn't registered at Companies House. There are two phone numbers in the T's & C's (not sure why?) but one is the same as Rutland Cycling. Their 'registered' address is a suite of rented offices in London. This isn't THAT odd because registered offices don't have to be where the business operates. There are enough grey areas to give us consumers cause for concern I think. Would I part with my money? No but it's difficult even for the likes of Chain Reaction or PlanetX to part me from my money 😉

They don’t appear on the Brompton list of dealers - but are there grey importers or anything of that type?
