Today I learned that Lyford classics are to cease trading in March. So, in pretty short order that’s three classic bike parts suppliers that have decided to shut up shop. Lightning Spares, Supreme, and now Lyford. Age demographics I suppose. It is a bit of a worrying trend although not entirely unexpected I suppose. Both us Brit bike owners, and those engaged in the business of supplying our bits and pieces are all growing older together it is probably inevitable that this will happen. I just hope that this trend does not gather to much momentum.
