[@medianexchanges]

may all of your work be this brilliant

[@brilliantbikes]

Thank you for watching May all of your comments be this kind ;-)

[@vishmeister4151]

The Velcro on the single strap is to be attached to the other strap so that you carry it like a tote bag.

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for watching - and thank you even more for the explanation ... makes perfect sense to us now :-)

[@vishmeister4151]

brilliantbikes you’re welcome. I love your videos. Especially the technical bits. Keep it up.

[@felixcat9318]

I collected my new (pre 2020 version) Basket Bag today and am very impressed with it's design, construction and the numerous neat details it has. It's a higj quality product that'll give years of service, and your video really displays and explains it well.

[@michalvaynes9353]

the velcro that surrounds the handle can be used in case you want to carry the basket with 2 handles - you can pull the handle from inside the bag and attach it with the velcro so the bag can be carried a bit heigher on 2 handles instead of one.

[@brilliantbikes]

Many thanks for the clear instructions 😀

[@Bieffe]

The bloopers are hilarious....nice to include them as many ppl don't know how tuff it's to make a video. Stay safe guys! We can all beat the virus!

[@brilliantbikes]

Thank you for watching and your extremely kind comments Stay safe yourself ...

[@andythousand345]

Nice video. That would be a great bag to go grocery shopping with.

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks again for watching We were worried at first that the groceries would jump out of the top when riding - but the strap and cam locks help prevent that (though it does reduce the capacity a bit)

[@andythousand345]

brilliantbikes you’re welcome. Would be great to see you grocery shopping with it.

[@lupacchiotta1963]

I have the same bag but of Liberty Line! Fantasia bellissima!

[@sgtrod]

I ❤️ that accent! Say “borough” again please!

[@sdstreiker]

extra velcro allows you to route a camera strap or another bag through that to make the collective easier to shoulder.

[@lonestarlaurel]

Marvelous idea!! Big thank you!! ❤️It can also simply put the two straps together for easier (at certain times) strappy handles mgmt.

[@cirodirosa6752]

Didn't know the basket was so well thought out. I have the first/second version which was quite basic

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for watching and commenting We were of the same opinion. When planning, we thought ‘Ok how are we going to make this last more than 30 seconds! We also were (previously) under the impression that the contents would ‘jump out’ if we hit a bump It was a lot better bag than we expected

[@lonestarlaurel]

Thanks for yet another brilliant demo video ❤️

[@ayy232]

Apparently the basket can be attached to the bike when it’s folded and used as a rolling shopping basket. Would be good to see a video of that.

[@ez1.global186]

Another thx for your informative video!

[@brilliantbikes]

And another thanks for taking your valuable time to watch it and give the kind feedback

[@lonestarlaurel]

Well done! Thank you. Wish I could find one. Oct/20 and nary a bag to be had in North America

[@owenchuarbx]

Just bought this, great for food delivery

[@kamikenze]

Did you notice the inner fabric wearing out due to rubbing from the frame?

[@jamiewilden389]

Iv noticed that the 20/20 e bikes will not take the older Brompton bags .

[@boredmalcontent]

Whoes the cheery drawings you send out with orders? Is it you??

[@brilliantbikes]

We all do, so if I’m packing the parcels it’s me. We do have some funny requests - can you draw your best dinosaur on a bike is one of the funnier ones! Thanks for watching!

[@boredmalcontent]

@@brilliantbikes Excellent, I'll think up a challenge for the next order!

[@leonwebster4296]

Will it fit on a bike with "S" bars? I enjoy your videos a great deal!

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for wAtching, and your kind comment Yes it will fit happily on the S-Bar equipped Brompton (sorry we missed that in the video)

[@Hic_Rhodus]

Hey guys. Nice review as always. I was wondering how thick is the inside bottom fabric on the Brompton Basket Bag? Does it feel thickish and sturdy? (You see, I just purchased the much more expensive alternative Wotancraft canvas Basket Bag online. It looks fairly nice I suppose. But I was pretty shocked and disappointed when I felt the inside and bottom. It is made up of simply one layer of very thin canvas. No re-enforcement at all. Just less than a mm, I would guess, of cordura canvas fabric. It certainly does not look half as sturdy or thick as it appears looks in the online photos. Which are also a very different colour to the bag you actually receive!)

[@jonathanbmBen-Menachem]

Does it come with the yellow plastic cover to protect it from heavy rain? Many thanks for the video. Very informative!

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for watching No - the basket bag just comes last it is - with no cover - it's the Brompton equivalent of a wicker basket - for fair weather use

[@princessleiathemaltese5571]

Is it stable enough to put in a small dog?

[@robinferguson8911]

I'm wondering this as well! I think it'd be stable enough for sure but I wonder if it will tend to close on the dog. I guess that would only happen by putting upward pressure on the carry handle. I might have to give it a go for my little jack russell.

[@dbmusic4114]

I just bought a bike with this bag. is it normal for it to rattle so much? i didnt enjoy using it on the more bumpy roads.

[@HonoluluTita]

Not too many bag options for Electric Brompton yet. 😞

[@uschi36]

please, what brand is that orange helmet. i appreciate your response ! thank you !

[@brilliantbikes]

It’s a POC, but it’s been discontinued

[@birdpirch85]

Can these bags be attached to the back of the bike? Sorry if this is a dumb question

[@luvinfunvan]

Am I the only one that thinks the zipper on the inner pocket should be on the other side? When I fill the basket to capacity I like that I can flip it out of the basket but then the zipper is on the wrong side and I have to faff around trying to get items while not pouring them all onto the ground...

[@daje2437]

hello! Is this a shoppingbag? can u recommend a shopping bag from brompton?

[@Karla-Flr]

Do you know if there will be new bags for the Electric Bike ?

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for watching / commenting Unfortunately we don't know if there will be any more Electric Brompton bags .... there could well be as the frame for the large and small bag are removable - so in theory it's just building a bag around the frame (just .....) What we do know, is that if there is a new one - we will make a comparison on it!

[@Karla-Flr]

brilliantbikes Thank you very much ❤️

[@spulwasser]

So I have a 27-year-old "second hand" Brompton. Does anybody know whether the front carrier block can be attached to older bike models? I'd like to go grocery shopping with the Brompton and need a little more space than just the rack...

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for watching 27 years old is impressive We think it will have the two holes on the front carrier block You can see how they look on this video - at the 38 second mark kzbin.info/www/bejne/roHJiqaDaKqGm8k Let us know how you get on

[@spulwasser]

@@brilliantbikes thanks for answering! It has those two holes, but with different screws in it, so I was wondering whether they also changed the distance between the holes... To be on the safe side and because of monetary reasons, I've now bought a Klickfix Caddy Adapter. It works great, except you cannot completely lock the handlebar when folding :/ I'll see how much it will affect me. Greets from Germany and stay healthy!

[@tetto1972]

how many liters is borough-roll-top-bag? 28 or 31? thanks

[@yannd.8703]

What bag do you recommend for grocery shopping ?

[@brilliantbikes]

Thanks for the question and for watching! I’d say the basket bag, it’s great to chuck things in!

[@amiraseri]

Where to purchase?

[@brilliantbikes]

Thank you for watching You should be able to purchase at any Brompton dealer As at early June 2020 there has been a run on them - they are so popular that Brompton (and us) are out of stock

[@BGDCTV]

great review , im searching for the bag for my dog sequrely attached to the brompton.

[@Melosible]

Did you get the bag for your dog, and did you like it? I am also looking for a brompton bag/basket for my 4kg dog.

[@cheesescientist]

My 4kg dog fits in this basket bag.

[@oliverwill9563]

@@Melosible Did you? I am also looking for a bag to carry my 3.7kg dog.

[@richardbarrett4104]

Does it come with a frame in there bag please?

[@brilliantbikes]

Many thanks for watching and for the question. Yes the bag comes with the frame fitted

[@Ekaijinko]

what is the name of the bag holder

[@slothypunk]

is borough bag fit perfectly for S type handlebar?

[@brilliantbikes]

Yes - Brompton have designed the Borough (and Metro) bags so they will fit all handlebar types - including S-type

[@christophersanton]

How firm is the base of the bag?

[@antonyreid7419]

I have the old version and placed some black 3mm thick plastic corrugated plastic sheet on the bottom to protect it as although the material is very strong it's also very thin and could be easily punctured wit a heavy pointed object. You could also use a bit of cut down foam exercise mat. I would highly recommend this bag as the open top allows you to carry outsize big items like a pack of e kitchen rolls or a French stick of bread.
