Any Brompton dealer,
All premier dealers have to have 4 demos.
I vote 6, it’s the fastest, even if it is slightly heavier!

I’m no Brompton expert, but I’ve recently completed 5k London kilometres on mine, including expeditions to the Epping hills and whatnot, and if I was buying again I’d go wide-range three-speed with a slightly bigger than standard chainring—the derailleur is bobbins. And fine-tuning ratios, which is all that gadget is really good for, isn’t worth the bother.

Thinking about joining the Brompton club. Probably won’t ride more than a max of 8 miles one way. How many gears would people recommend and any where people could recommend I could test ride one in London?
