A lovely looking, understated, stylish bicycle. But is it not a collaboration of 4 makers? Brompton, Bremont, Cheaney and Brooks for the seat. And yes, wearing the shoes while cycling it would be very dapper indeed.

FYI, the special levers are in fact much heavier than the normal black aluminum P-line ones, which possibly means that they are made fully of bronze as they officially state in the BxBxC website. specifications, and not bronze/brass-plated or anodized aluminum. Information found on FB post by a Japanese Brompton dealer Loro Tube who've actually put them on a scale to compare.

I like this, although the Bremont connection leaves me cold. If it was Brompton, Cheaney and Roger Smith I'd be far more excited. As an aside, my LBS fitted a 40 tooth Sturmey Archer chainset to drop the gearing on my 2009 P Line 6 speed. It makes a huge difference on the local hills but without diluting the higher gears too much. It looks amazing too! I'm looking forward to taking a 12 speed for a spin soon...

Subjective - there are so many - some say they are stiffer - depending on type - some say there’s no difference and some say it’s worse. I have seen quite a few not very well made suspension blocks - spring coil types - that actually deform. Best to stick to Brompton parts that have not only passed Euro codes but US ones as well. My .02 cents worth. But it’s your coin at the end of the day. 😊
