Constructive criticism: Check volume and sound quality before posting a video. the sound was muffled in general and I had to crank this all the way up and could still barely hear it. Probably harder for me as an American to understand an English accent at low volume, but I would think even a native English speaker would have difficulty.
Not your accent mate, you are spot on, an awful video, low quality sounds, mumbling & poorly edited & poor explanations you can't hear his description properly
😀👍 Try the Contact Urbans, no matter your Line. It's an awesome all-rounder tire. I use mine for 1 year on a C line now and it's beat up well due to all the Glas and crap on the street -> zero punchers, no problems overall (fitment etc), Still rides smoothly and feels save.
Continentals for me. Difference on gravel is imperceptible to me vs marathon, and not noticed any increased tendency to puncture (on the experience of just two bikes, perhaps less with continental). We have two electrics, one with marathon and one with continental, and i prefer the ride of the continental in most riding. Did a 27 mile loop of Kielder water recently (all gravel, with occasional roots and sand) and both performed fine with no punctures. very occasional front wheel spin on both on steep sections but nothing to worry about.
I'm waiting for tubeless rims and tyres to appear. Then I can drop the pressures to improve the quality of the ride (90-100 psi is harsh on all but the best roads!) and have the benefit of self-healing punctures (or none at all would be nice!) Any sign of that yet?
y I comment that IMHO the presenter does not place sufficient emphasis on ensuring that owners should ONLY fit tyres that are rated for electric bikes, on the electric variants. Of course any suitable tyre will suffice but tyres rated for pedelecs will give added assurance in the event of any insurance claims. Just saying.

Na, mate. I'm British, and he was mumbling a lot in places. 😉

Yeah I couldn’t hear exactly what he was saying with my volume turned all the way 🆙🥴
Pardon me, what did you say?
Thanks for the informativ vid - but please keep an eye on the sound next time - sound is awful
The guy is mumbling, I think he needs to talk louder and clearer closer to the 🎤
I use marathon plus, peace of mind, yes a bit heavier but I hate fixing punctures 😂

Vielen Dank, wieder was gelernt............toll das Ihr das immer macht.
As others have noted, the sound of this clip was not the best.

Great video, but more importantly where can I get the t-shirt and hat, they look great :)

vee tire goodie goodies on my brompton. inexpensive, light, no complaints. even did a 100 mile ride on em.
Brompton, there needs to be a pro budget for making YT videos. You’re a global brand now, and the quality of your videos should follow suit.
thanks for this. What are your thoughts on the Schwalbe Kojak for Bromptons?
I need Gravel tyres for my brompton, unbelievable noone produces some....
16 inch 1.75 tire could be possible to fit on brompton?
I notice the Continental tyre was mounted the wrong way.
Couldn't agree more with comments about the sound quality. Very muffled. Bordering on intelligible for non native speakers.
I am dreaming about “Big Apple” on my Brompton .
I have tried twice but have no idea what he is saying. Subtitles might help.
Brill you look like Chumlee off Pawn Stars
