Happened upon this by chance and this stands out the most to me. Seller claims “maintained frequently” but everything I see there screams “left abandoned in the basement”.
Sticker is almost gone completely but I wouldn’t mind that. No exact info about production year but it uses Marathon Plus, so should be somewhat recent at least. Sits at 380 bucks. Jump the gun or not?

Get it, even if something should be changed Most Parts are relatively cheap, would recommend to trow some Easy Wheels and new tires on tho

I would! Seems like you could clean/fix it up and still have it be worth it.

Go for it, it’s worth that much in parts.and even of you spent another 400 on bits, you would still be ahead financially.

The beauty of the Brompton is in the basic design and engineering, which is why it’s both so beautiful to use and so enduring. That hasn’t fundamentally changed.

Get this bargain.
You can changed to external gears instead.
