60 pounds of groceries in a bike trailer is no joke!

Great job! Happy Thanksgiving.

Air pollution would drastically lessen if they'll make a designated/separate road for cyclists or non motorized vehicles only and people will get their daily exercise.

OK, when is Brompton releasing this bad boy in Titanium?

vro is speed

What's the purpose of the ramp to the right of the runnel?

You need to channel my husband. He is a big fan of MTB and once he gets to the top it's time to go as fast as you can back to the bottom.

Maybe have to convert 12 speeds too heavy for this. Mod the 12 speeds to 7 speeds and change the chain ring to 56T with carbon wheels. That will lighten the bike. This mod will make the T line lighter for climb and speed.

The number 1 reason I purchased my original Brompton was the size. Small and compact to carry into my condo, take on the subway and throw it in the trunk of my car. The number 1 reason I don't use my Brompton, is the unstable and uncomfortable ride. In other words the bike is a compromise. The G line is a compromise in the opposite direction, better ride, less compact. At the stage of life I am in, the G line looks like a better fit for my needs. Great review.

I just wish you good health bro

Awesome video. What a hell of a climb! And meanwhile: Cameraman keeps up easily and creates perfect footage.

If have to pick something for you to try here in Portland: Springville Road, from Bridge Avenue. It is mostly a gravel/mountain bike road associated with Forest Park. But the starting half mile is paved and it looks gnarly from Bridge Avenue/St. Johns Bridge. Strava lists it as having 18% pinches in there.

Sick adventure

Ooh that grad look nasty

This past year on De Ronde I was alongside someone doing this on a tall bike.

Burma road on Vashon Island, WA.😊

The strongest legs in Seattle .. those Hills look like they are great for training though ( anaerobic )

Hanoch, you are a beast! Well done.

Animal!!

That looked like the most brutal of the climbs in the series so far to me

I definitely won't buy a G line. It's too big and heavy for a foldable. I currently have a C line, the only other Brompton I'd get would be a P or a T if I get the extra cash. I started to use my Brompton C line for touring, me 90 kilo and 30 kilo luggage and no issues. It's such a great bike.

What size is your chainring?

Did you also get a chance to try Brynwood while you are in Portland?

Mt Lemmon in Tucson. It's not near as steep, average is about 4%, i think, and it's something like 25 miles. It's a great ride

So it sounds like you only save 1 lb of weight vs the 4 speed P line?

Little bit more cadence and would be easy peezee

Very impressive!

Cool

Well done ! Great ! David from Munich, Germany

What climb should I try next? What did I miss in Portland? What do you think of this climb? Would you try it?

Buying one from an actual dealer is still a much better deal. Rent from them if you must and then go actually buy one from a local retailer that will take care of it for you. using Wombi is like buying a TV from Rent a Center. It's gonna cost you somehow and the fine print is DANGEROUS.

An interesting e-bike that can be enjoyed with our family!😄

Nice! I just learned about Wombi today at the commute road show at my office! Tempted especially with the commute benefit I get.

Glad you had a chance to highlight this service! I've been strongly considering selling my relatively underpowered ebike and just switching to Wombi.

It looks so empty compared to the old G&O! Hope its a viable biz model 🙂

I was thinking about getting one of these with the dog carrier rear thing. I'm curious how it would ride as a taller person though (6' 3") 🤔

As an HSD owner, I love what Wombi is doing to get these bikes into more hands for people to try hassle-free. These are high quality bikes that are built with the highest specs, and we even replaced on of our cars with the HSD - the belt drive is amazing in the cold/inclement weather. Hoping you have the best experience going car-lite!! Loved this video.

❤❤❤

Trikes? In Seattle.

Wombi is such a great idea. The rates seem reasonable given the cost of the bike and all inclusive service (even pick up and drop off, which is a big deal - cargo bikes won’t fit in most vehicles or typical bike car racks). Compare that to leasing a car, paying for insurance, paying for gas, and often paying for parking. I hope Wombi is successful in Greenwood and extend their service area beyond the great white north and come to south Seattle! Dave’s should hand out fliers to parents waiting to pick up and drop off kids.

@BestSideCycling Hanoch, why is your wife terrified of bicycles, which are your one and only passion?

Girlfriend to be 😂

Yayyy! You two are going to have so much fun on your Wombi!!

Yaaaaay! This is so great. I am happy to see the two of you out and riding together.

It's short, but it's interesting anyway

Good first ride. Thanks for sharing. I have a Bike Friday All Packa which is great for gravel and touring. It fits in a suitcase but the fold for trains and buses is not as neat as the Brompton. Production question - what drone did you use? Did you use for the ride alongside?

Not very unique. Bike tunnels are common in Western Europe…
