Incidently, is the Brompton frame logo always some sort of sticker/transfer? The bike I bought second-hand had sat in a garage for several years and had clearly hardly been used at all. There was a wrinkled plastic film covering the frame logo, I guess protection that the original owner hadn't removed. . . it'd turned into a nasty gluey mess and it took me a long time to get it off. But looking at the Brompton logo itself, it appears to be some sort of super-scratch-resistant sticker due to the fact that there's a couple of air bubbles where it's lifting off the underlying paint. . . is it designed to be easily removable and replaceable with a fresh decal? I've seen Brompton decals on sale but I assumed they were for people who do custom paint jobs on their frames. . . perhaps not? Or maybe what I'm seeing is some type of rectangular-shaped clearcoat laid precisely over the logo?
