    So here in Europe, a self-built Brompron Titanium with high-end components would be significantly more expensive than the Brompton T-line. Finding parts, postage from Asia or America, customs, sometimes extremely long waiting times for parts, special tools for assembly. Skilled craftsmanship. I've already built a number of bikes... it was always more expensive than I originally thought. 🤔 That's just the price for an individual bike.

    Lots of your criticism is on point, but i do really cherrish the backwards compatibility with the bromptons and i think that's probably one of the main reasons why they don't jump the gun to "modern" designs. To me it is by far exceeding its tasks and until now, because of the lack of value retainment and lack of options as well as lack of backwards compatibility and last but not least the bigger dolfing size, no other folding bikes have convinced me thus far. The explorations of titanium aren't of interest to me, the alumimium approach of dahon seems fine, never had a chance to try it though, but overall i'm quite happy with where bromptons are going.

    • @SmallWheelWonder

      The new titanium models break backward compatibility, which is one of my arguments against them.

    Brompton was not optimized for lightness, but rather compact fold and reliability. If you're looking for a high-performance lightweight bike, Brompton is not it. Brompton's sweet spot is the steel frame. If you prioritize lightness over everything else, don't get a Brompton.

    I hv no issue with the logo graphic design of prodrive. Its the whole design of the bike hv issue. The folding is not as compact as brompton. Its chassic design, look like a cheap ripoff of the vintage lotus bike. Its just not practical to own one. Most ppl who get brompton, do commuting alot & required the bike to fold as compact as possible. Style come secondary.

    • @SmallWheelWonder
      @SmallWheelWonder 10 днів тому

      The Prodrive is more performance oriented but can be used for commuting just as well. The folded size differences are discussed in the video.

  • @AdrianJamesEllis

    You might want to also look at the Vello, made in Austria, particularly the titanium models. I've owned a Brompton for years, and they're great for urban commuting, but I think the Vello bikes, with their 20" wheels, look better for longer journeys and train / plane cycling holidays.

    IMO, with Moultons you don't have to go with the most expensive models, although their fit and finish is WAY above the cheaper models and in the top tier among all bicycles of similar prices. Personally, I would get a 2x SST model. It is more like 23lb than 20, but saving that 3lb costs some $10,000. For a fraction of that, you can upgrade with a carbon stem and bars, saving half a pound. Building new wheels with light carbon rims, fewer and lighter spokes can knock off another half pound, and TPU tubes another quarter pound. Knock of 1/8 lb with Jagwire segmented cable. Wear out the chainrings and put on last year's top carbon crank and knock of half a pound for not a ton of money.

    • @SmallWheelWonder
      @SmallWheelWonder 11 днів тому

      Correct. What you build is always way cheaper and often better as well.

    I think I saw a Prodrive this week when I was on my way to work cycling my Brompton here in Belgium. At first I thought, weird looking frame Brompton but it was to far away to see any sticker. I was thinking about what it could be and your channel now shows what it probably was. Never ever seen it here but I hope to have a talk to the person riding it.

    T Line - 8.8kg P Line - 10.5kg P Line is almost half the cost, keeps the classic look, has better compatibility with existing Brompton parts. And many would prefer the P Line's titanium fork, vs carbon.

    • @SmallWheelWonder
      @SmallWheelWonder 12 днів тому

      Absolutely. The fact that they have this model proves that the T-Line didn't work out as well as planned.

    • @bmwofboganville456
      @bmwofboganville456 12 днів тому

      I agree the cheaper Bromptons are best bang for buck, better than the P Line. But I would get the P, not the T, if I wanted a "nicer Brompton".

    I've been examining the Prodrive with belt drive and Shimano 8-speed hub. This system uses a grip shift. I've never liked this, especially with sweaty hands like my own. Can the grip shift be easily converted to a click type shifter?

    I've been waiting impatiently for this video!!! Yay!!! It's here. _Let's go!!!_ Prodrive ruined Hummingbird !!! The logo looks like it's from an auto parts store. It's hideous. The website sucks too. It's soooo sad. Also, Brompton's fold, ease of rolling, and luggage capacity is unbeaten, though you might persuade me to get a Hummingbird over the T-Line. I 100% agree with you about how awesome scooters are. I ride an Oxelo Town 9 and I love it. _I'll be back._

    You can make as many points for and against the Brompton but for me, it is the best money I’ve ever spent. I love my Brompton as I’ve never loved any of the other bikes I’ve ever owned. It changed my life. I have a simple 3 speed hub version. It is - for me - perfect. When I get old and weaker I’ll probably buy a Swytch kit for it.
