As a Dane I don't feel any obligations against Britain and British Products and though my 2019 Superlight bike is now added to with a lot of Eastern Components, it still looks mostly like a Standard version! But it weighs below 9 kilo, even with mudguards. And Brompton has had its time to earn a profit before the end. Finn. Denmark

Yeah i mean is better but the wheel are quite small i think 20inch wheel is more better

Do you know not all people have the money for brompton

mechanic told me not to change out the suspension block cuz it will damage the frame

😅😅😅😅

Brompton also 10x more expensive than other bikes .. ridiculous

Aluminium is a great frame material indeed. Urban Arrow and Larry vs Harry have done so since the start. And they look slick too.

Bromptons are also a magent to criminals I had 2 both got stolen within 4 weeks

ya know the downside of brompton? it it 5times the price in my country equal to a fucking Price of a 1000sqm Land

how about a video essential upgrade for folding bikes that are steel framed .... ya know not all can afford a bike like brompton

Never through LSD away. Please send it to me. 🤯

First upgrade: sell it! Second upgrade: read tests Third upgrade: buy a birdy, Dahon, ...

Sir, you pro folder and unfolder ❤ i have giant chiron 2 i love it ❤❤❤

love my 3sixty haha

Add kickstand and bottle cage

Do you buy brompton just to push only

Pull it by the Handel bar

I own MTB (BMC Te01), RB (Madone SLR), 1 Brompton and 1 birdy. Birdy no way to be close to MTB nor RB game. I took birdy simply because of its futuristic design. I vote Brompton if have to choose Between Brompton and Birdy for leisure commuting and folding size.. Cheers..... other than that, i can have speeding ride with RB, hardcore ride with MTB.

Great stuff!

Hornback is the best folding cycle in the world

But is bloody expensive XD

It wont be the big players that change everything, it will be small innovators, 3d printing will change alot The main design bis the frame, and not proprietary parts, everyday, with many rear hub options Fraction of the price of a T line

但是，太鸡儿贵啦

Thank you.

I prefer Helix, a 24 inches folding bike.

Just got a Brompton - great video man. I did a few other upgrades and definitely need that strap for carry

This is one of those things where you buy both because in real life you don’t have the limits. It really is about what your priorities are. The birdy is close to a real bike. It even is the more versatile as you can use gravel tires or even mtb tires for semi off road while the brompton is a city bike. The birdy personality can just change with a set of tires. The biggest problem is the fold. So it’s basically if you need to fold daily or in an emergency. If you fold every time then the birdy will where you out. In terms of Singapore cycling I would say the birdy wins. You can enjoy both Seletar airport with road tires or GC with billy bonkers. In that sense you can change your flavor if you get bored of one scene or the other. And if you’re on the road you have a better chance with the birdy against road cyclist. Also the aluminum frame will combat the high humidity and rust. Brompton is famous for rusting and even a guy with a month old brompton will be rejected for warranty claim for rust on his chpt3. But the brompton fold is so good. If you are thinking city rides and also traveling with the bike because Singapore is so boring and the cycling network is shit, then brompton is the way to go. It’s just so efficient and compact. It’s the best design as a folding bike. So do you need a folding bike or do you need a bike is the question. A person who is considering both birdy and brompton because it’s a folding bike will be happier with the brompton.

Upgrades/accessories I rather have: rear rack, h bars or bull horns for handles, phone holder, seat post suspension.

The plethora of Brompton upgrades and add-ons speaks to the issue of design and tech on these bikes.

what is your height bro?

for the third party titanium parts, triangle fork and stem, can i know where did u source them?

so I buy birdy R 20" 406 be better than brompton

Are there any other folding bikes that can be pushed around like the brampton? And also maybe have twenty inch wheels?

Great upgrades. Just seems sad that zillion dollar bikes need any upgrades or changes but I get the customization. These changes do seem somewhat essential though

Do you know why the Btwin fold is so much better than the Brompton? Folding/unfolding speed and price.

i can buy an audi with same price

I have all the cables routed internally. As much as possible at least.

Bromptons are bloody expensive but that's because they're good quality and handmade in the UK. They're not great value for money upfront but they'll last longer than most bikes at the same price point. As an added bonus, if you decide you don't want it any more then the resale value is way higher than most bikes because people *know* they're good.

Thanks for your clear explanation. Do Shimano HG40, HG71 and KMC Z8.3 go well on six and three speed Bromptons? Which one would you recommend? Here in my country, Brompton chains are not sold. Thanks for your help!

Anyone saying aluminum won't last doesnt know what they are talking about. I have a 25 year old kick scooter made out of aluminum and it works as good as the day I bought it and I still use it. I only found out yesterday my BT Tilt 500 has an aluminum frame. That surprised me as I thought aluminum frames were supposed to be rare but nope. It's lasted plenty fine but it probably explains why it is tiring to ride all day. Read anyone who has ridden both materials on the same day. Aluminum sends the vibrations to you. Steel absorbs them

Thankyou👊🏼🙏🏼

any idea on the weight difference between this and the stock one?

It better be @ 5 x the price of an actual good folding bike that also brings you to work & home...

The hinge clamp design team was on vaca and the design deadline was due in 12 hours, so they got a 12 year old to knock something out rq.

לי יש הרבה יותר טוב ויותר הילוכים. Fnhon storm.לא אוהב ברומפטון.
