Hi

Any particular make or model more suitable for taller riders ( 2 m )?
Any models more suited to going a bit faster than others? any stability issues at speed?

Thanks so much, sorry for the numpty questions, I am very much a beginner Bromptonite !

any stability issues at speed?

The steering is noticeably more “twitchy”, takes a couple of corners to relearn that from a standard bike. In my experience potholes, kerbs etc are much more of a worry on a Brompton, even at relatively slow speeds. The low gearing means you’ll only ever get up real speed down hills.
