Nothing Beats C Line 6 Speed. Loved it and used for commuting to work daily.

The best explanation of the Brompton family that I have seen. Good job.

Everytime the models change this man comes out with a different look

[s.a.]

Thank you for admitting that the most important thing is the color—I feel the same—I’ll probably get one this year since models of interest come in bolt.

My Brompton is my favorite bike. Perfect bike for apartment living. It’s great for back problems because you sit upright. I have the 12BK SP Dyno and got it in 2019. I have a lot of miles on it. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a light weight bike and lives in an apartment. I added extra lights and it looks really cool.

You didn’t mention the A line at all, any specific reason?

I want the electric C line Urban 4 speed in Racing Green. If I could find a used one...I would grab it up fast. I live in Denver.

Awesome! Just booked an appointment... :)

On two of the lines he describes 3 different handlebar types, yet in the pictures there seems to be only 2 types of handlebars. One seems to have a longer stem though. I hope Brompton has found pop off pedals that actually work, because for me they make more sense than folding. Unfortunately the most common ones on the internet have a lifespan you can measure in weeks.

why canada use so much imperial units here

I am renting a Brompton, 3 months for $180.00! Best way to try a Brompton, imho.

Make an off road / gravel version of the Brompton and put on disc breaks

[stephanedoyon]

Bonjour Hi,
Thank you so much for this informative video. I'm still happy with my two Brompton bikes. Hi to the whole team

[maxmeier]

There is no way the Brompton 6spd has a 3 pounds of weight saving compared to a regular 6 spd. A shimano Alfine 11 weighs 3, 4 pds, so unless the Brompton gear system is weightless, the numbers are completely off and weight saving is absolutely not the reason Brompton uses this weird combo that makes shifting unnecessarily cumbersome because you need to use 2 shifters all the time, because they are each separetely controlling the 2 and 3 spd system.

[stevansha]

Please, if you wish, compare with Kreuz Bike

[VeeVeeArcher]

Smh.

Incredible how people found a video that was clear in its title, "Brompton Bicycle 2024 buyers guide". Then filled the comments asking for a completely different video that compares the bikes to cheaper bikes with cheaper parts.

Think for a day, or two days, before commenting if your reading comprehension is very poor. It will be better for everyone on YouTube. Thanks



To appease the trolls with zero reading comprehension:
Zizzo is a great deal, great bike, some very cheap parts that real riders would upgrade. Changes the price. Still a great deal.

Montague is a fast bike, good prices. But, you get into puzzling mediocrity in higher end models. Not the greatest parts on the models that get into the price range of the Bromptons. I am not impressed by Montague specs. Breaks, shifters etc on higher end models are disappointing compared to the way the trolls were raving about them in the comments.

The anecdotal race comments are pathetic.

Did the ither rider agree to race you? I didn't think so. It means NOTHING to overtake another bicycle on the road.

[ToastandJam]

There appears to be a question whether Brompton will be around for much longer. There reported profit for last year was just under 5000 uk pounds. Considering the high price for these bikes that use mostly proprietary parts this makes me nervous about buying one.

[edwarding]

I do love the Brompton for portability, but I sold mine because the steering is too twitchy.
