I have not had the pleasure of experiencing any of the electric Brompton versions yet, but not many miles away from me lives a little old man who has been riding around on a Nano Brompton for YEARS. I still see this old boy out on the bike occasionally and the longevity of the bike and the Nano system does mean it will probably be the kit I go for if I ever decide to go leccy.
The Nano would be a good choice, the drive system has had three major changes in it life, both to the motor and controller, I think it's a better option than the other kits available online and if you can source a battery and charger from marketplace you can save a further hundred or two!

Customer service from Nano Electric is excellent and the low weight and ability to use the little Bosch batteries in any Brompton bag is brilliant. I’ll be interested in what you feel about the difference in feel since Nano Electric is cadence based and I haven’t tried the Brompton or Arcc Electric which have torque sensors.
Thank you for your msg and for watching, I'll ask in my local Brompton group if anyone has the Nano, it dose look good and can have a thumb throttle which I find useful on my mid-drive cadence motors. Thank you again for your input.
That’s great to hear. There is a considerable price difference between the Nano and ARCC kits (currently £1900) so the Nano is top of my list just now.
@@NottinghamshireMadness saw a TH-cam item on someone getting one and his review was really good , you tend to be a better eye for details, it was just an idea, keeping in mind not all ideas are good obviously not from you or me but from others.
@@Mick_Holland I know the Swytch Kit does fold but I have yet to see the other folded. The ARCC is good money, the Brompton is a complete bike, have you done the costing of the Nano?

Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching and your comment.
I'll head over to BB and order the cover
Hello Andrew,
More good information regarding the Brompton electric options, I would be interested to see the Namo if you get one...
Cheers.

The video went so quickly one might even say woosh.
Yes, I'm not too sure how woosh they will be!

That's the direction I'm looking in. 👍🏼
