I never roll my brompton around but due to their larger diameter they make folding easier and look a lot better! Theoretically, also as they are larger in diameter, and have rubber ‘tyres’ they would also make rolling smother and easier.
How does it make folding easier?
The back end flicks round and lands more pleasantly on larger and softer rubber wheels.
