  • We had a question / comment about this Brompton bag
    "The Brompton Borough Medium (roll top) bag - is not the same as the Brompton Borough Large Roll Top bag - and not just the size"
    The bag is "similar" but has different features
    The kind viewer suggested we highlight the features
    So, here we attempt to do that!
    We haven't run through all the features of the Borough Roll Top Bag - which first appeared with the Brompton Explore bike - as we did that here:
    • Brompton Borough Roll ...
    Sorry it's not the grips (yet) - they are still a work in progress

    I've bought & sold quite a few Brompton bags over the past 3 or 4 years but have never found the perfect one, I've had this one for about a year & I think it's a keeper, just right for me. Really good informative videos, but being a sad old bloke I have to say the very nice presenter makes the content even better - sorry!

    This is a great bag, I just wish the length of the strap and clasp that goes over the roll top was longer, I feel like i could fit a lot more into the roll top, but the top can't be secured properly due to the short strap.

    I bought this bag and it's pretty nice-looking. It's a little small for an EDC, but on the other hand doesn't weigh down the bike. I'm using the flat back pocket for the rain cover, and plan to carry my essentials (phone, airpods, train pass, wallet) in a small sling for easy access, which will hopefully make this arrangement work better. In retrospect, I should have chosen something with more quick-access options, either a different style or the larger version; it's weird that more exterior pockets were not included. However, it's probably better to have those things on me rather than on the bike anyway.

    It would be a really great bag if it had detachable pockets on the back and have the roll top clip down at the sides. I would definitely by one then, but at the moment it's a rip off price for an incomplete product.

    I love your channel and videos. So charming...
    I would like to ask, if the 14L capacity is with the rolltop loaded to the full extent, or is there some extra space because of the rolltop design? So is it "~10L+4L rolltop" or is it "14L+? rolltop"?
    And also, where can I find one used? Also, if you by any chance know where can I find one besides ebay or facebook marketplace?
