University - Brompton Concept

[TheDoctor]

Sadly, NT, an 8 speed Alfine weighs about 1700g, whereas a 3 speed Sturmey Archer weighs more like 1000g.
Not sure where you could lose that 700g elsewhere on the bike.
I'd still like to see a carbon Brommie...

Thanks for the constructive crit guys, it is a tough brief, so I am trying to gather some insight from these forums. The idea I proposed was just an idea, I'm not going to produce it tomorrow or force it into the market so let me change the angle at which I approached this thread.
What would you Brompton users like to see in the next Brompton catalogue?

Not so tough.. You seem to be asking us to come up with the ideas!

Every Bromptonist knows that Bromptons are perfect in every way. They can only be improved by Andrew Ritchie and his merry band of engineers.

Why don't you design something off your own bat?

I don't want to make you cross on a Sunday morning, mickle, but I'm afraid the OP is another studoid who isn't coming back.

That's the thing, what I'd like and what is possible, or even likely are not always even in the same ball park.
