Hi Hyper Stuart Smith who is the Grandson of the founder of Langett Cycles, Herbert Smith has published a fantastic book about the shop from it starting trading in 1890 up to the Smith family selling the business on as a going concern in 1967. Its a great book with loads of old photos, the book shows that not all of what you say is true as the Langsett bikes and the shop were one of the same. You can buy the book at Langsett Cycles which is still trading sucessfully on Infirmary Rd as it has done on there since 1930.

Asking for a discount in a bike shop
stooney replied to Deepak_S7's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Do not think that if you ask for a discount you should automatically get one and should get upset if the retailer will not reduce their price. What would you say if your employer asked you to do the same job next week but for 20% less ? You say you asked about a simular bike at another shop and got a discount, may be that bike allowed the retailer more margin to work with?, you can only compare like with like!!. I have been a cyclist in the city for a long time and many bikes shops have come and gone, but the 3 best still remain langsett's, butterworth's & James's, use them or lose them !
