Well, tbh, i joined yesterday but haven't had time to post until now. I'm now a happy owner of a C-line M12R!
So far so good, been doing 30km today to a friend and back and it is so much fun!! More fun than i thought it would be because it rides much better than i thought it would. The bike is also really fast (for a heavy dude as myself), kept a 20km/h moving speed and that is with everything right out of the box.
I have been riding a Tern Link P9 for 2 years now and that one have 20" tires, but it is so much stiffer and ruffer than the brompton even tho it has bigger tires so a happy surprise :)!
The only thing that will take some time to get used to is changing gears while riding and also the resistance from the hub gears 1 and 3, my god it feels like i'm trying to power a windmill (and sounds like it too).
But on a scale from 1 to 10 i give it an 7.5/10. It will be more of a 9/10-10/10 when i get used to it and get some new grips (Ergon, I'm looking at you) and also perhaps some new tires (Continental), especially if the resistance from the hub continues to be as it is now, need all the rolling i can get.

Welcome!
What took you so long?! We’ve been waiting for you! 🤩
Have they come back to the “M<n>R” designations? They make so much more sense…!
