Love your videos - hope there’s many more to come! 🙂 I also live in Munich and am in the market for my first Brompton so I have two questions if you don’t mind: 1. are you happy with your Schwalbe Marathon Racers Tanwall? Any punctures yet? 2. How are you handling the weight of the CLine? Wound the PLine have been an option for you too?
Thank you so much!! I am planning some more, yes 😉 No punctures so far on the tanwall Racers (after around 800km). I am happy with them, but can’t compare them to other Brompton tires. What I have to say is that I got them in some very good deal and maybe wouldn‘t have bought them otherwise. I feel like some Brompton tires are really expensive, especially given how (not) much rubber you get for your money 😄 Regarding the weight, I would recommend trying to carry a bag with enough water bottles inside around to familiarize yourself with the weight. For me C-Line is okay to carry around for 1-3 min, then it becomes really heavy. I also really recommend the rack because of the additional two little rear wheels for pulling it behind me. Hope that helps.
