And @infmz I will admit I’ve got a road biased one (disk brakes, alfine 8, but chain not belt) as I just wanted something that give a bit more confidence at stopping (disk brakes) than the normal Brompton, and I always liked the alfine 8 (less so 11). Having owned a 6 speed bromton previously I’d completely agree it’s unlikely to be a first choice and is a bit of a vanity product, but I certainly don’t regret it when it’s likely my most used bike!
@recycled I want to add at some point eerder metaals full metal jacket, which replaces the stock plastic block for a screwed and clamped metal luggage rack that looks (on his IG reels) to easily take a full sized human standing on it (albeit static load). I think that plus basket and the rear rack would make a pretty good foldable shopping bike, not unlike a Raleigh 20 in some respects
