Brompton nano for sale?

[faphillips]

I have a Brompton Nano - 2 speed Brompton with Nano Kit fitted by Tony Castles. In addition to the normal battery it also has a Bosch battery - from a power drill - for relatively short journeys which reduces weight significiantly and gives much greater space in the bag.

The bike itself is effectively as new and completely unmarked, as is the Nano kit and has only been ridden for about 60 miles total.

I have recently lost my job and whilst a bike may seem the answer to reduced circumstances I may have to sell it.

My question is: Should I sell the Nano kit (Forks, Wheel & Tyre, Wiring, Batteries & chargers, Controller, Throttle and bag as a kit and sell the bike seperately or should I sell the bike complete as is.

Thoughts would be much appreciated.

Its shame if you have to sell it and sorry about the job

If you want to keep the Brompton then I guess the best place to sell the kit would be here on the forum in the classified forum.

I guess you could try ebay and certainly the Brompton alone would certainly sell there well.

So for the best deal maybe the kit on here and the bike on ebay.

Sorry to hear about the bad news !
Shame you can't keep the bike, but I bet you need every penny !

The most expensive part is the bike alone, and you're more likely to sell it quick without the kit. Second-hand value is quite high compared to other folding bikes, due to the continuing strong demand.

As for the kit, potential buyers will want to know about warranty transfer. It'll probably take more time to sell, but as you know: it only takes one buyer at the right time !

One last word of advice: take good photos of both the bike and the kit (on the bike and dismantled), with close-ups to highlight details. This makes a huge difference when it comes to sell.
