Brompton Global Demo: From Xian to Eltham & around the world

As many of you know, I've been getting around on my global wanderings on this rather exquisite British built bicycle for over 2 yrs now - and what a truly amazing travel companion this thing is. It really can follow you where ever you go and need never, EVER, leave your sight. I've stopped short of actually sleeping with it though. Yet as this video demonstrates, nowhere is off limits. I've taken 6 months to produce this video starting in Xian, China then: Shanghai, New Jersey, Boston, Montreal, Hong Kong, Sheffield & finally ending at home in Eltham, south east London. With sincere thanks to the scores of people who made this production possible. Camera operators: My lovely girlfriend Rachel, Couchsurfers Alice & Mick, my BA colleagues & of course totally random strangers who I approached in a time of need!

you can't hide a $2000 full size bike under a bed you leave it outside to get stolen

try taking it into an airline flight and pay $120 airline fee one way

plust you have to buy a $300 bike rack to carry it in your car and probably get stolen in the bike rack where you left it

the future of communting bicycles is the small wheel brompton or similar bikes
