Havn't used it in over a year save for today when I commuted on it and it reminded me that I do need to sell it. Owned it since new and if you have ever wanted a Brompton it is good fun. Have taken it to Richmond park for a laugh and dropped plenty of respectable people on it. I also have far too many bike projects going on at the moment (who needs 3 super premium carbon fixies seriously) and could do with selling the ones I don't use.
Everything on it is stock/ as when purchased new.
Two (of the most) minor issues to consider when buying:
brake pads: I have been a lazy mechanic and haven't changed these since new. the braking works but it is most definitely time for some new pads; and
seatpost: Brompton seatposts slide up and down. if you slide them down too fast the bottom of it will hit the floor. I did so with mine and now the bottom of the seatpost has compressed slightly (imagine a ever so slightly crushed coke can). still works fine, but not as smooth as it was new.
