Big warning for Titanium parts from tibicycles.com. My stem snapped off yesterday (luckily when I was riding up the garage exit and not all full speed), roughly one year after my Titanium seatpost from the same vender snapped off. Clearly a quality problem from the vendor side.
Anyway, I wanted to ask advice for the next step. Since my hub gear is also broken for quite some time. Should I get a new P-Line and sell the parts of this one. Or should I try to fix this one? Or should I do both and sell this one in repaired state? What would you do?

Hard to see in the pictures, but this is a 2010ish era Brompton with 2020 superlight fork and rear triangle and 2022 seatpost. Another option would be to retrofit the superlight parts onto a new C-Line. I want to avoid non-genuine parts.
I would get the broken bike back to stock, do you have the oem seatpost and stem? Then I would buy the new Brompton you like. Then I would ride the old bike as a winter/beater bike and keep the new one for good weather stuff.
i would be happy to adopt it from you for the right amount of money 🙂 ich wohne in DE
