StarPerú DESTROYED the bicycle
StarPerú destroyed my Brompton. I am not exaggerating. The damage is
so severe it seems to have been intentional. They claim that by identifying it as a bicycle, I released them from any responsibility. I claim that identifying it as a bicycle constitutes a recommendation for appropriate care, not a request for greater abuse! I told them my insurance company's lawyers will likely have their own interpretation. I am in Lima, Perú, and Brompton has no dealers in the country. I can figure out other means of transportation until my return to Oklahoma, but I am not sure a replacement—pretty close to the two thousand dollar insurance limit—can be delivered there before I have to leave for Spain. It may be that the frame and front wheel can be salvaged, reducing the cost considerably, but I would have to show it to a Brompton dealer to know. The loss may result in increased costs for transportation by other means, not to mention that I might need to spend extra to route a trip through London to visit the factory for repair or replacement. Shipping times for parts and/or replacement makes any other location (except maybe Madrid) impractical due to my travel commitments. So, it's bus and foot for the next month at least. -- Wes Groleau |
