My Brompton sounded awful this morning and wasn't shifting gear. Was fine last night. Got the gears working again by jiggling the derailleur whilst stopped at lights and stopped by a Cycle Surgery to borrow some lube, liberally lubed the chain and all the bits of the derailleur, but made me realise that the poor thing needs a good clean already. For some reason I thought it'd be bombproof, but doesn't really seem to be the case.
