Are you saying your friend wants to change the seatpost from the steel version to a carbon or titanium version?
The original Brompton titanium seatpost had issues and recalls before it was discontinued. 3rd party titanium seatpost are fine especially the ones on SJS.
I would avoid the carbon ones as they will wear and break eventually due to the fact they’re not designed for sliding up and down on a daily bases.
Hope that helps.
