If your over 80kg I see benefit, the stiff rear makes it feel much more planted etc

So the stiff blocks by kerouac et al are still better than the new Brompton stock blocks?

FWIW I'm way north of 80kg and am happy with the standard block; I'm sure a posh block might be marginally better, but am not sure it's worth the £££.

“Better” is personal!

I favour the Kuosac at 95kg, I like my bike to feel like a road bike more than a comfy cruiser..

It’s stiffer, has very little movement but is comfortable.

For £20, I’d ride the standard firm for a while and see how you go
