NEW Brompton C Bag with Rain Cover & Luggage Frame - Lagoon Blue - 24L

Description: Hello, for sale is one New Old Stock (NOS) Brompton C Bag in Lagoon Blue color. It has never been used and has its original tags attached. I used to work for a licensed Brompton dealership. I purchased this bag as a backup, after the C Bag model was discontinued. I stored it away in my closet, in the original plastic bag. I have many different bicycle bags and my wife, quite reasonably, asked me to reduce my inventory of backups and spares. So, dutifully, I am listing it for sale. If you know the C Bag, you know that they are the best large bag that Brompton has ever made. The C Bags are sturdily constructed of Cordura nylon They last many years of heavy use. It is now, however, impossible to purchase a new one. Occasionally you will see a used one for sale on eBay, but people do not want to part with them, so even the used ones are rare. Brompton should not have discontinued them. The current range of large bags are more expensive, are of questionable quality, and have fewer pockets. Customers often came to the store seeking a C Bag and left disappointed having learned that they were no longer available. Anyhow, not only does this C Bag have tons of pockets, including two water bottle pockets on the back side. It has a stiffened bottom and a shoulder strap. Inside is a laptop compartment. What's more it comes with a rain cover ("Rain Resistant Front Luggage Cover"; $25 if purchased separately) and Brompton's largest luggage frame complete with an integrated handle. This luggage frame is also, in my opinion, essential equipment for Brompton riders but it too is out of production. The comparable product currently being sold does not have the integrated handle. (It's called "Replacement Luggage Frame - Game Bag"; $50). The one with a handle is more useful, though, if you wish to strap your own briefcase to the front of your Brompton. From a marketing perspective, I suppose Brompton wanted to discourage this behavior in order to sell more of their own bags. If you want to buy the bag only and do not need the frame, I could reduce the listing price by $40 and keep the frame in my inventory. This is from a non-smoking household. It was in my closet, not in a basement or garage, and it is clean, with no odor, etc. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
