excellent - I'm famous at last.



I'm reassured that their bells ring over the bumps like mine does. I'm going some air of a sleeping policeman on the way home now

Need to try launching with the wheel folded under, expect reports of epic fail coming soon...

Hmmm, the bike in the vid looks like a titanium S type with no mudguards, racks etc etc. Bet you couldn't do that on a "normal" Brompton

Can't tell from that vid. Titanium aside, they're all the same frame.

One of the design team can be regularly found thraping around his local BMX and skate parks on his Brompton, and his is all steal.

So, I bet you could.

...you might not want too, however

Took me a second to work out why they used that song, bit I guess NWA never made Straight Outta Brompton so the makers of the video got as close as they could alphabetically.

Love the 'ding' from the bell everytime a trick was landed.

I have a titanium S type with no rack, and its only the pink one thats had its mudgards stripped.

I didn't manage the folded launch out of the agrage this morning but I'm working on it. Think I need to get my weight a lot further forward, but I don't want to mash my teeth iinto the concrete either!

The carpark exit is great, he's on the edge of stacking it the entire way
