Yeah carbon would be a pretty awful material for a brompton I feel. As wazzy as it is I don’t think the sacrifice of frame integrity and toughness is worth it, carbon is terrible in a crash.
needs some gears and proper pedals
It’s a nice looking bike but makes my ass hurt looking at the seat
I think someone has stolen their rear brake, making it illegal to ride this bike in many places. Also stolen their carbon fibre grips and a few other bits too. I’m so sorry for their loss, and appreciate their courage and bravery in pushing ahead and putting up this half-built bike.
(Ps I have the same tyres on my Brompton : )
