Lol I like Brompton's met a lady with one yesterday she was chuffed with it but said it was heavy and difficult on hills. It looked ok shame they don't do a 20" wheel version, or even as is with good parts, I would buy one for the teeny foldYou might get lynched by the Brompton Mafia for saying that @TrishnBonnie I should keep your whereabouts secret.
Yes, but in terms of the original question, the most cost effective way of saving 3 minutes journey time is to leave 3 minutes earlier.Three minutes is a big difference over a 3 mile ride. It might be the difference between me catching my train or not, for example
Nope same train I can unfold my bike quickly no twiddling bitsYou had presumably arrived on the train before him though?
That looks to be a good conversion kit,Just reading towpath talk and saw this, electric conversion kits for Brompton View attachment 148047
there is a lady in Cambridge who rides a Brompton that has a motor .... it's pretty fast (especially when she accelerates from a red traffic light) .... had me confused at first, as I never saw the motor.

Seems to be about £1000. You might save 10 minutes a day, but you'd be losing 30 minutes of activity in your day - which unless you have an active job would be detrimental to your health.

What's this wonderful bike that's lighter, cheaper and faster than a Brompton, and unfolds quicker?
