Does anyone know if Bird bikes ever have sales? And if so, are they at any regular intervals/dates?
Not that I’ve seen, they’re pretty good value as they are, are pretty popular and don’t seem to have model years, so no need to really.
I’ve seen some builds with few quid off
Not really, mostly because they don't subscribe to the model-year nonsense that almost everyone else does - they release new bikes as/when they're ready rather than just changing the colours each year.
Similarly to Cotic, Bird only really seem to discount when they've got a batch of frames coming in a new colour, or they've updated a model.
Not seem any sales at all. They do sometimes sell off their demo bikes though
I bought my Zero with £100 off. But it was an older non-boost model.
They **occasionally** have cancelled orders they offer to the owners FB group at a discount. Occasionally as in I’ve seen 1 in a year of being a member.
Tbh their margins and tight, they’re already great VFM and they’re NOT cheap bikes, the frames are beautifully made with some clever features. They’re just don’t cost as much as others.
I was able to buy my AM9 from Bird via Cyclescheme through work. That has helped bring the price down.
Loving the bike too.
They're pretty damn good value already and it's a small, rider-owned firm that actually does what it says it will. By all means wait for a discount, but you'll be getting a really nice bike that's good value even if you pay full whack.
@OP
Good news is you can just get out and buy one. Now. Right now this minute. NOOOWWWWWWWWWW!
a year and a half ago my good lady got a great deal on a Specialized (autumn sales). Happily saying she got a £4k bike for a little over £2k.
Actually, she got, at best, a £3k bike, nicely subsidised by the people that paid full RRP for it.
Bird don't do this - with the few end of line and demo exceptions.
