Similar journeys but different riders.riding a Brompton which is of course far more long legged but, I would suggest, designed with similar journeys in mind.
Bromptons are designed for people who will be riding them every day, and will thus have at least a basic level of cycling fitness. Boris Bikes are heavy things designed to be rideable by absolutely anyone, including (as has proven the case) people who last got onto a bike 20 years ago.
Sure, the BB gearing is a bit limiting for regular cyclists, but we're not the primary market for 'em.
