Hi,
I'm Julian.
I've been described as a curmudgeonly old fool, a boring old fart, a grumpy old boomer and the funniest guy on UA-cam and those are probably all fair descriptions. I make videos about cycling (mostly), movies, travel, reviews, comment, opinion, and anything else that interests me and might interest you.
Sometimes I upload regularly and sometimes I don't do anything for a few weeks - it depends on whether I think I have something to say.
If you enjoy my videos, please like, share and subscribe. I welcome any and all comments on my videos but...try and be kind and a bit witty. I try and respond to all sensible questions and genuine enquiries.
Please remember that my videos reflect my opinion and my opinion only.
With regard to equipment, most of my videos are made with:
Panasonic GH5 and Panasonic lenses.
Canon G7X Mkll
Panasonic GX8
GoPro Hero 7 Black
Rode video microphones

The chief reason not to ride mountain bikes is those inconvienient pine trees in my way!
Glad to see you touching on how one can lose 125% of your body heat through the napper if one is, like me, a slap-head. At that point I thought you were going to demonstrate the Rapha toupée hanging from a nail behind you - at least that's what it appears to be. Needless to say you didn't do that so, once again, you've pumped out a disappointing video which simply shows off your fancy possessions. To paraphrase one of our Great British patriots you're behaving like a middle class man of a certain age. Have a Crappy Histmas. Cheers👍🏼
Merry fffffing Christmas to you too !
Luv it, thank you Julian😁👍
You know a garment is quality when the textile is made of Mourinho wool.👌
Looking good with the beard Julian.. great to see you creating more cycling vids buddy 😊 hysterical as always 😅 Pete🚴🏻👍😊
Someone said there's a video gone up of Julian in the buff... Turns out pulling the curtains and watching cautiously from behind the sofa wasn't really necessary after all... Mad, utterly mad, and back to his very best! 🤣 Have a good Christmas Hutchings old chap!
This is information we never thought we needed and after watching the video I think we can all agree we were correct.😂
What no silk inner gloves!
Another invaluable gem. I really don't know how we'd manage.
You can never have enough muff!🎉
The Moulton rides as beautiful as it looks. Performs very well and super comfortable
I rather enjoyed that Julian- sort of peaceful and relaxing. Ah yes, I remember lockdowns! There should be an annual non-pandemic lockdown so we can all re-charge our batteries.
Watched the other 126 vids before yours - all rubbish by comparison. An unboxing without a box, a bike or even a hat - what a feat, what a man. Nice to see you back. Quite fancy a G, sod the weight, nothing (another) hernia repair can't put right.
Don't worry Jules, just wait a while and you will be able to buy the Ti version when they bring it out.
Brompton seemed to have changed their mindset for the worse. Reputations can be lost easily…
Beard hiding the face lift scars I see 😊
This is the funniest shoe review I've seen, I can't stop laughing
The weight? What planet are the Brompton R&D team on!!!
A Brompton is made for its fold, and not for riding, and mine, what's left from my original bike, is now below 9 kilos lifted weight, though still with mudguards, though an elderly model 2019. I definitely don't need a LARGER and HEAVIER bike, which I can't even hide as folded in my car's luggage compartment, from its new size! And I had an electric, folding Makita, which also filled and specially - weighed a lot. I have also sold it again! Finn. Denmark
😂 Thanks Julian.
Exactly! The size and the weight negates the reason I bought a Brompton in the first place. Even an original sized Brompton is hard to carry without banging into your ankles if you're shorter. It weighs as much as an electric C-line without being electric! Yes, it rides nicely, but so does my full sized hybrid. 😂
Nice one Julian. Short but nevertheless.. it was sweet. We will know they have finally listened when the "J-H" Line Bromptons come out! If you get bored waiting for that, then maybe 10 reasons not to by an ATB (the newest marketing gimmick) could whet your appetite and ours.
“Mid-career Dawn French” 🤣🤣🤣
Lovely to see you back… and bearded.
Designer stubble, DMs, and a new Brompton video. Christ on a bike! Cheers👍🏼
I recognize the orange Brommie from the London showroom where I visited today. They didn’t have the honey Brooks saddle I’d wanted. Staff sent me to Condor and I’m a happy tourist. Hello from a Pennsylvania fan who’s also 68
Blimey, it's -that old fart- the honourable gentleman Hutchings back again - good to see you back Julian! 👍
Nice to see this review of the BGL, from the Clarkson of the cycling world.😄
Yes, Julian, welcome back- we've been here all the time, waiting for you! Don't leave it so long till the next one- as you know, we'll listen to any old rubbish you spout!
Welcome back Julian,
Does it still work after 2 Years? What about the dents in the deraillieur extension from the B-Screw? Thanks IMCR
I’ve just bought a fucking Brompton after years of full size proper bikes. This is hilarious - anyone not getting your humour is completely missing it. I’ve done 6 miles so far and it wasn’t properly unfolded. I nearly broke my fucking neck getting out of the drive. Folding fucking bikes. Who needs them? 😉😂
Smart move. Having worked as a cycling guide in France and Spain, a 40t cassette with a compact front chainset (46/30) or (50/34) would be the ideal for most riders.
Brompton is basically the Apple of folding bikes. One design remains the same with only minor changes, charges premium prices, creates a hyped up community and an in or out mentality also in regards with compatibility with most other products that follow common norms . And funny enough it has the same effect on people. It makes poor people feel better, by making them even poorer. Or tell me how many rich people need you know to commute to work using public transportation, or don't have a home where they can store a full size bike, or take their tiny folding bike with them when they go fly somewhere because renting a full premium bike where they go to isn't their thing? I don't want to offend anybody! I rather want you to analyse with me and look at the unfavourable life circumstances that are often described and out of whom the positive reasoning and gratitude for such a bicycle arise. This can also be translated into: How should your life be different, so that you wouldn't NEED a Brompton anymore, but just WANT one?
2:00 I know its have a weight, but using KG is not a sin. Thats universal unit who i thinks must use universally
Hah! That's a bargain. I just saw the upgrade kit at a US shop listed for $1,100! That's ridiculous!
You're so full of s*** and you have no idea what you are talking about. Christ. Nobody says SHY-mano. And the pronunciation of Focus is so wrong I can't even, and I can go on.... (German, Japanese, English, all Nordic languages, Latin, Hebrew, Greek speaker here) Please, people, do not listen to this.
Man I needed this video my e-bike stem that snapped
On my Moulton AM22 I have also tightened the front suspension bolts to prevent bobbing, just as you did, and have also found the right compromise that still gives a comfortable ride. However, at least on the AM22 these bolts are not locked in any way, and they slowly come undone -- they can even come completely unscrewed and fall out if not regularly checked. This is a bore, so I have replaced them with slightly longer bolts with a Nyloc nut on the inside to keep them in place. You adjust the tension with the nuts loose and, once you have got it right, do up the locking nuts to keep it that way. Problem solved. (The original bolts on the AM7 had Torx heads, silly as they were the only Torx bolts on the whole bike, so I replaced them with normal Allen headed bolts.)
You're priceless, Julian.
I bloody love this. Way better than telly. I put this comment on another of Julian's videos by mistake, but in reality, they're all better than most things on the telly.
Thank you - very kinf
I bloody love this. Far better than telly.
Thank you - very kind
What was your PSA, Mine is 69.60 , and ill have my biopsy on the 15th of this month!!
Did they use lube are did he use spit!!! Did they have some nice music on!!!
I started with Men at Work, followed by Going Underground, and then the Doctor was a woman so I asked for Brown Girl in the Ring.
@@JulianHutchings Sounds like a winner!!!!
00:56 Sounds like Julian is trying to convince someone that he isn't going to have enough room to fit anyone else on his next solo trip 😅
Very nice choice of music Julian- especially St Anne's Reel.
This is brilliant.....had me chuckling the entire way through. I've been pondering a folder and been reading/watching everything i can in an attempt to come to a decision about which one. One thing that bothered me was the amount of second hand Bromptons for sale. That is - if they are so good, why is everyone (it appears) selling theirs.....and now i see. Another thing that bothers me (thought it worth including) is the welds on Bromptons - they are the ugliest welds i've ever seen. I've been tempted to contact Brompton and recommending they instruct the welders to open their eyes - at least whilst welding bicycle frames.....Thanks for the video - entertaining and informative.
Maybe watch 10 reasons to buy a Brompton?
Microshift SWORD 2x 46/29 11-38 cassette
Cost a quid or so to fill it with that product (from a 1litre bottle) lasts as long as the tube last or 2 years I think they say - can just buy a new inner tube every couple years - astronomically cheaper in time and money from constant punctures and repairs
