When I first got my Brompton I was having the exciting I'm cycling home from work feeling and went from the road onto the pavement where there wasn't a kerb. I did a wheely and the bike seemed to be balancing well and then I just fell straight back as the thing folded, luckily landed on my feet so didn't look like a complete idiot. They are amazing bikes though and surprisingly fast, really don't see the point in having one fixed though I wouldn't even have one single speed. They don't ride well when you are out the saddle so I find I need both the gears on mine.
