Hey all, my (in all fairness old) Brompton started making this sound while riding. What is it? How much will to cost me to fix?

My sense is that it’s coming from the right pedal.It seems to happen when applying a bit more pressure than a leisurely stroll (e.g., slightly uphill road)

Thanks!

    Assuming that all hinge clamps are tightening fully, and are not worn to the point of needing new plates…

    … it could be that your bottom bracket needs attention. I would get the drive train, including the pedals, checked over by a professional.
    Also, don’t discount the possibility that the noise is coming from the saddle mounting…(happened to me).

    PS. I think your Brompton is a smashing colour!
