Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Brooks Employee Purchase?

Im only posting this here cuz its the most busy page and I figured more bike shop employees would be rollin around here. Anybody know if there is a pro deal discount from brooks? Theyre affordable with my normal discount but its still a bit expensive...
I'm gonna go ahead and guess that there is no such program of course

The Holy Grail requires penitence ... and the quest for the unholy $

Go forth and seek.

So basically... wholesale is about as good as it gets unless Brooks were to give you a saddle...say...for testing purposes.

actually they do have a pro deal, you obviously have to work in a shop and be able to prove it. It is all through highway two as they are the official brooks dealer for the US. Im not sure how much more it is off of wholesale, probably like 10% Just call them up and they will email or fax the form to a shop email or fax #
