Quels bons souvenirs... j'avais le numéro 8 ... Was here (n°8)

[zizidba23]

i wonder how fast they are

[TimpBizkit]

looks like those bikes have a poor range of gears

[federikoPlus]

@TimpBizkit 3 gears, it is ok ,

[tpmm1]

@federikoPlus Money can buy almost anything! You can have 1, 2, 3 or 6 gears, if you want to.You can even choose your desired resistance, depending how fast (or slow!) you plan to ride it. They are nice bikes, actually. :D

[mrchuka]

It could only be British! Gawd Bless us!

[federikoPlus]

@mrchuka and they are expensive as well

[therocket130]

no we do it for fun not for money:) we do it in free time:) there is planty bits you can stick on brompton... from carbon handlebar, external b+b with racing crankset to extra gear on the sprocket:) some brompton parts are just vintage and you can easly find better replacement:)

[therocket130]

brompton are fast and fun to ride:) I work in a bike shop in london and we sell and serwice brompton. we have one which was left by the owner. we made some tuning:) now is 400g lighter then s2l-X . they are fast!! as a shop we are planing to build one as a first brompton downhill bike:) i already made it 9 speed:)

[federikoPlus]

Do you have any website ?

[mnbv990]

As the proud owner of an S2L, I salute you! Looks like a glorious event.

[octodor]

Is Brompton a fast bike. That is the question.

[graiypz]

how fast are YOU

[rverdoold]

average speed is 23 km/h, max I have reached was 50 km/h on the flat with the M6R

[faerthen]

Actually, maybe it's the second song I want. Better list them all :)

[felixdave]

The main song is Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis.

[felixdave]

Then it's Moby 'In This World'.

[faerthen]

What's the first song?

[equalitzador]

I love Brompton bikes...

Espero poder comprar-me'n una aviat... je je je.

[ericuscus]

fast with a smallweeler,yes,but not with a bike like this!! it works better with a moulton or birdy,they give you more comfort and better gears and brakes.its a suicidtest to ride more than 10mph witch some selffolding part.

[onehorsepower]

If that was true I would have been dead a long looong time ago... try a new Brompton, big difference to one that is 10years old...

[pinkyabuse]

A very peaceful and beautiful video.

[tek121]

Loved your video, based on content of course. My Brompton has been more places than my wife. Business trips you see! Have the Schlumpf Mountain Drive and dream of taking it the length of the Panama Canal. SOMEDAY!

Best Wishes and have fun on your Brompton!

[federikoPlus]

I used the panasonic DMC-FX9

[Unfathomable42]
