I have been riding the Brompton folding bike for over 15 years. I have owned approximately 10 of them as well as other folding bikes. This video is a brief history of my experience with owning a Brompton. I hope this helps those on the fence of buying one.

Thank you for posting ! Yes. Brompton is one of the best folding bikes you can buy, especially the current P line, with 4 speed gear. Most current owners enjoy the riding experience and will also find out their bikes will hold their value very well after few years usage. Although the purchase price is high, most owners will find it inexpensive to own when they sell them

hello !! I really like your videos and I hope you will continue for years to come . I bought my first Brompton in 2018 and was the chat3 v1 from the bike shop in Southampton ( I think someone return that bike) but I love it , in 2021 I bought another 2 bromptons ( 1 electric in a lovely blue color and 1 super light Brompton with titanium parts (with this bike I cycled last year from Bournemouth to Frankfurt around 1000KM and was really good and I had no problems with the bike, not even a puncture !! ... in 2022 I bought my T line and another 2 super lights Brompton ( 1 in racing green colour and 1 in red which I will convert in few days if I have time with a switch electric kit ) . and finally this year 2023 I bought the chpt3 v4 and I managed to find and buy chpt3 v2 and chpt3 v3 . I was really lucky to find the last 2 chpt3 at the very low price and in very good condition , with all the paper and complete my collection of chpt3 all versions !! I love them all , chpt3 are all beautiful and my t line is crazy "sick" like me :))

Will be nice a T line chpt3 , if I can afford when is coming out I will definitely buy it ! I just like to say I am not rich , I worked really hard and most of the bikes are second hand ,at very low price( manufacturing price ) , only the T line and another 2 bikes I bought them new !! I never thought in 1 million years I will have the complete collection of chpt3 , because they are so rare and people who sell it on eBay , they will ask crazy money !!

from that perspective of brompton electric i would add 2 points in brompton's favor: 1.) that the electric doesn't require app to use - this is huge. so many new electronic hardware manufacturers go out of business leaving existing customers s.o.l. because app is no longer able to be used. on this end of the adoption curve, there's a big advantage to new electronic hardware for which an app adds some features (like keeping track of distance ridden and more exact battery % charge), but is not required to use the battery/motor 2.) also, brompton electric is better than it's competitors to carry stuff with front carrier block and rear rack. far exceeds gocycle or hummingbird in these ways. also, better than much heavier non-folding bikes which can't be brought inside.

I would strongly advise test riding it once, and maybe even more than once, before plunking down a lot of money on one.

I come from a higher-end road bike background, and recently got a Dahon for my 1.5 mile commute. I felt like the Brompton was a bit over-the-top for a first folding bike. After the first ride on the Dahon, I realized I wanted a Brompton. One of the biggest things is that folding the Dahon once I get to work is more cumbersome than I thought it would be, and the compactness of the Brompton is also better than I realized.

Did you ride during the smoke from the Canadian fires? When you worked in Japan did you have a mama chan bike? I worked for the U.S. Treasury and every January and February from 2003 to 2007 I was detailed to the American bases, Yokosuka, Yokota, and Misawa. I was also sent in March and April of 2004 to the U.S. embassies in Tokyo, Seul, Manila, and Beijing, and to the consulate in Hong Kong to assist U.S. citizens with tax questions. After I retired in 2011, I went to the Yamassa Institute in Okazaki City in 2012 to their 日本語だけJapanese Language School

Greetings from Canada. I just bought a Brompton back in April of this year and I love it. You mentioned about Dahon and I thought I would tell you my experienced on the Dahon. I thought these bikes was just as good as Brompton until I ending up getting one. This year I have to replaced the front ring of my Dahon and I was a bit surprised when their customer servce told me that I need to replaced the crank and it will be an aftemarket. Mind you the cost is only $70 to do the repair on the Dahon but why there are no replacement parts? That is something that will not happen on the Brompton. OEM parts are compatible for Brompton, so it doesn't matter how old the bike is, there is always parts for it. My next Brompton is a T line. How do you feel about the Brompton copies coming out of China? You should do a video to compare.

So these people making "clones" as you call them are stealing Brompton intellectual property. If you think stealing is morally acceptable you can pick one up off the street for free with a pair of lock cutters. If everyone had undermined Brompton by allowing cheap labour manufacturers to steal Bromptons i.p. we would not have the t line. There would be no innovation. These clone manufacturers contribute nothing. You should re think your life choices if you're supporting them instead of Brompton.

I have heard of many people over the weight limit. Please keep in mind you may have to keep on top of maintenance which may be more frequent. Depending on how you plan on using the Brompton, you should test ride it. A C Line with Schwalbe Plus tires is heavy and the rolling resistance of the tires itself is more than other tire models. If you plan on just using it lesiurely that is fine, but for long distances it may be slow.

Ok you convinced me to drop the cash for a brompton. I had the same giant road bike for almost 10 years I bought used for 400$, been with me from DC to Oklahoma to Korea to Germany, finally got stolen in Berlin (I live in rural Barvaria). I want a titanium road bike replacement probably need to spend 3k$ but been tempted to go cheaper while I live in Europe (fears of theft again) with a folding bike. My bike got stolen because I was kicked off the train from Berlin to Poland. While German trains allow bikes, the polish woman told me I can’t get on with the bike. Desperate I had to find a place to stay for new years in Berlin one more night. Stayed at the ghetto of Berlin and took only a few hours for my bike to get stolen. A folding bike would allow me not to worry about bike theft or train transport. I thought the brompton wheels were too small, gears too low and over priced. So naturally I wanted a tern or Dahon, I been road biking so naturally I wanted as close to a full size bike ride as possible. I still plan on getting that titanium road bike eventually so don’t need a bike that’s a road bike replacement. And before your video, I thought the brompton was like a Honda Motocampo, just a cute toy not intended to ride farther than 10 miles, it seems people do bike tours with them. Thanks keep up the brompton promotion

Good morning , Thank you for this video. I love my Brompton C line electric Brompton that I purchased at Rei. So much I am considering purchasing a second one. Do you see value in buying a P line versus C line for a second one? It would shave off I think about 3 lbs. I ask bc you obviously have plenty of experience. A second question would be, how and where do you sell your bikes? I have a Trek verve 2+ which I am sad to say is collecting dust despite being an excellent bike and it would be nice to rehome it. The Trek does not fit in my trunk like my Brompton does and that I seem to not be able to forgive it anymore…. Call it the Brompton curse….. :) Sabine

Sorry to have to name it, but if it wasn't for the extreme fold - a Brompton is an absolutely horrible bike ( I own a former Top, 2019 SuperlightM6LXBrompton)! Modified down to 9,35 kilo (Correction, now below 9 kilo) and still with mudguards (I don't like the "Brompton Stripe" up my back, as a Dane) and it may be blamed for giving rise to a large number of even less useful, small wheeled bikes in the seventies (Some of which couldn't even fold, or only ½)!!! The small wheels are definitely heavy rolling, even on the best of surfaces! It may do what other bikes do, but with much more effort to do the same job!! There is a reason why MTB's are now mostly using 29" wheels. As an elderly man of now 75, I have also owned a 6,8 kilo racing bike and I still own a hand built, carbon, Vision Kilo based, full Shimano XTR equipped MTB with the top disc brakes, XTR 9120. Finn.

I'll be buying some pedals for the Brompton i don't own yet,ha. That will bring my aftermarket total up to $400 nice thing is I'll be able to resell the stock parts to cut my losse's. Is that good math?

Your better off with the original. The clones are not the same in terms of quality. I would keep the original parts. They are hard or really expensive to replace if you need to in the future. Make sure you get top dollar if you do sell them.

Get a Brooks saddle too. Once it softens up with the cream it will be a dream to ride on.

Thanks for convincing me to get a brompton! 🤣May I know your height? I'm 5'7", and trying to decide between S and M handlebar

I am 5'5". You should test ride it and the handlebar type since both would work for you. The S will be nice and sporty (you will be "leaning" on your handlebar all the time) and the M type you will be sitting upright (with the ability to ride one handed since your not "leaning" on the handlebar).

一か月ほど前からブロンプトンファミリーを拝見しています びっくり したのは何処かで見たような木造校舎は吹屋小学校ですね そして岡山駅前 わたしは岡山在住でブロンプトンPラインに乗っています 岡山との関わりは何でしょうか? 🤩🤩🤩😄😄

私は岡山出身です。10年以上前ですが二人で岡山市、津山市、高梁市に住んでいました。仕事の関係で転勤だらけで。。。笑 シュウが初めてbromptonを買ったのも岡山市内の京橋の自転車ショップですし、吹屋は高梁にいた時に長男と一緒に訪れた時のものです。 岡山出身の方がBFTを観てくれるとは。 とても嬉しいです。

そうでしか ニューヨークのことと思っていましたが 岡山と関係が 在ると知り 急に身近に感じられます わたしは岡山市北区の北の端  津山線沿線上に住んでいます 将来 運転免許証返納した時 移動手段は JRとブロンプトン輪行になります 田舎はどんどん寂れてきておりますが 津山線は今 二輌編成で走っています それでは楽しい動画を発信ください。
