It's another staged show for entertainment value. Before filming the pilot episode, they put word out that they were needing a folding BSA bicycle. They wanted to buy one for use in the show but were willing to settle for renting one from someone. That way they could pretend to be haggling and purchase one from a person that they actually flew in from England that would pose as the owner wanting to sell it. Naturally the price was significantly higher than market for the bicycle and it caused a surge in people suddenly trying to get big bucks for their own BSA folding bicycles.
