Soul - it's not bad - I think the standard gearing on all Bromptons is a bit high given that they are meant for commuting and the last thing you want is to arrive in work as sweaty as....
I think that top gear on it is about 66" with this set up - much better than the 78" or so they come with. I set it up this way because the journey I was taking into work at the time involved a steepish climb out of Lime St station in Liverpool and I wanted to avoid the dreaded sweat problem!
Ozzeh - I know - I'm trying to sell most of my "fleet" at the minute as something else has caught my eye (bloody internet...) - no joy whatsoever!
