Just got hold of my first ever Brompton in flame lacquer. Based on where I live I was unable to see it in person before ordering it. I’m really not so sure about it. Kind of wish I had gone with a more traditional color…

Looks incredible, but I think they have some issues with rusting?
Welcome to the fold 🙂
Well what can I say, I have one and I love it. It is such a great color and I wish Id have a green laquer too to complement it.
Here are a few pics of mine

I have the old black edition, which means the handlebar-stem is black too and I have that frame-handle. With more black, the orange is becoming an accent color – maybe you can add a few black pieces too?
WRT to traditional vs bold – the brompton is a very unusual bike outside of london. So it can break the norm in many places and be as fun as possible.
Hope you enjoy the bike or find a brompton you like 🙂
I think it looks amazing, really beautiful. You made the right choice!
