А как он его катит за седло, если оно является фиксатором раскладки в сложенном положении?!!
@@glenantrim5728 Глен, спасибо за ваш комментарий. Седло можно поднять на половину высоты и оно все равно будет фиксировать раскладку, этой высоты как раз хватает чтобы катить велосипед за седло. Плюс на ровной поверхности даже с полностью поднятым седлом велосипед будет сохранять сложенное положение
@@staskucherenko спасибо
20-30 miles on a Brompton? You are more bike than man
@@leighsherval1023 looooool, thanks a lot :) this reminds me a Gino D’Acampo with his legendary “if my grandma would have wheels - she would have been a bike” :)
Pros; it’s kind of neat. Cons; it’s 3 times more expensive than it should be.
@@falconreconeight well, I wouldn’t necessarily disagree, but it is very neat though :)
Great video! Very helpful. I think girls really like such walks❤
@@user-qh4so3hf6r thanks a lot :)
How abou people with c line? how can you attach a trailer
@@gdlerner Hi Gerardo, thanks for your comment. I am almost certain it will work in a similar way, to the best of my knowledge rear axle for C-line looks pretty much the same as for P-line, so same kind of setup should work as well.
@@staskucherenko but I don t habe a QR on my brompton
@@gdlernerthat’s fine, neither do I on the P-line. the default skewer is not a QR, with regular nuts on both ends. The one I’ve used in the video is from Hope - brilliantbikes.co.uk/quick-release/4358-hope-road-130mm-quick-release-rear-skewer-black.html?search_query=Hope+Road+130mm+Quick+Release+Rear+Skewer+-+Black%09+&results=3178 I’ve bought it separately for the whole setup with the trailer. QR doesn’t really matter here tbh, it’s more the length of the skewer, to give enough room for the hitch.
Btw, looks like I might be wrong with my previous comments here. Did some research and it looks like with Sturmey Archer hub for a 6-speed C-line it might look slightly different after all. Will get back to you later today on that front, need to check couple of other points first.
So it looks like that for C-line you don’t event need a new axle - found this video on Brilliant Bikes, where they attach Thule Chariot to C-line with Sturmey Archer hub, and the hitch just bolts on fine - ruclips.net/video/tvBA1K8oFmQ/видео.htmlsi=uAZK0SkHFSG0z47q
Great video❤
@@viktorzadvornov thanks a lot :)
Great informative video. Thanks. One question though: Can I (6 ft tall) bicycle a Brompton and, at the lowest point (when closest to the ground), just like a 26-28” wheel bicycle, (almost) stretch my leg in full? I don’t want to ”bicycle with my knees”…
@@user-ue7nd1it3w Thanks a lot for your comment! Regarding the height - that’s perfectly fine indeed! By default Brompton offers 3 types of seatposts - standard, extended and telescopic, which allows to accommodate cyclist’s height in a range of 4’7 to 6’8 inches - here is the link where they talk about it www.brompton.com/support/knowledge/what-is-the-maximum-minimum-rider-height The best way to pick the right seatpost height is by inner leg measurement and match it with respective ranges. I have standard for my P-line and I am 178cm high (5’10), and at full height it is just about fine for me, so you probably should be fine with extended seatpost, but still worth checking either at the shop or via inner leg measurement to be sure. One other thing to keep in mind is the height of handlebars, where you again have 3 options, and they impact riding style quite a bit. Mine is mid, pretty happy with it so far, you might want to consider either mid or high depending on your preference.
Again a great video which covers all the important details and different aspects. Very helpful. 👍 Thank you for this. I’m sure it was a lot of work. Extremely well done. 😊
@@OliverNeill-22 thank you very much for your kind words, Oliver! Glad that you liked it :)
Christ Alive!!!! £820 for a trailer is mega expensive! I'd expect to buy a car for that price! Is that company run by Alex, Paul and Jess or something!
@@KeithApp Hi Keith, 100% with you on that :)
New sub here! I would love to own a Brompton one day. I will have to save up. I have a foldable bike but it's a bit too heavy and not as easy to store. I slowly building my confidence on the busy roads of Manchester but I will get there soon. Thank you, very informative and straight to the point.
@@fujajo2761 Hi Fuja Jo, thanks a lot for your comment and subscription :) Glad the video was helpful. Very cool that you are trying to cycle on the road, I also did the same, starting from local parks, then - quiet residential streets in the morning / on the weekend, moving to closed roads sportives, and smth like a month ago - gradually shifting to commuting with my bike, which requires a bit of effort and prep but it’s totally worth it! So I think you are on the right track, keep it up and all the best with your cycling adventures:)
@@staskucherenko thank you. ❤️
I'd like to see someone compare these to Dahon folding bikes
being a brompton owner in the US, its wild to see a public transit statement that specifically allows folding bikes. I'm usually at the mercy of whatever bus driver/flight/station attendant is there who's never seen a foldable bike before when I take my bike on public transit. Rejection without exception is pretty rare, but it does happen, so I hope we see statements like that of the TFL stateside soon!
@@UrsaJeager hi Luke, thanks for sharing, fully with you! One positive thing about the US though in this context - when I was doing some research on flying with Brompton - it was interesting to learn that pretty much no airlines in Europe would allow Brompton is cabin baggage / overhead locker, while many people had told me that it works fine in the US. Also, when I was in Philly - there were plenty of people cycling, but probably more recreationally / as a sport, rather than as a mode of transport.
I wanna try this but I wonder if security can misinterpret putting groceries into your bag 🤔
@@MrSmotrelkin that’s a fair point :) well, from my own anecdotal experience, didn’t have much trouble with it so far, but this might of course be different at different places. I would probably dare to say that benefits in convenience and time saved outweighs the risk of potentially nasty conversation with security, so would still suggest giving it a go :)
Greatly structures overview. Incredibly informative. 🙌🏻
@@danaildimitrov8864 thanks a lot for your feedback, Danail, glad the video was helpful :)
nice video. Try our ebike kit KN20S for Brompton bike. 😊
I have a CHPT3 v3. My wife has a H6R, we travel with them all over the country as they are easy to pack into our EV and away we go. All bikes have maintenance, you accept it when you buy any type of bike. As for price, I’m willing to pay more for hand made bikes from the UK, versus mass produced out of Asia. People are paid real wages and we get real quality.
@@binjones Hi Dennis, thanks for sharing! Sounds very cool, that’s pretty much my plan as well, already got my older daughter on 2 wheels, yesterday just tested Burley Bee as an option to bring my younger daughter with me while cycling (works wonders btw, very happy with it so far), and plan to pull my wife into it this summer, starting with Brompton Bike Hire and then getting another Brompton for her full time :) On price and maintenance - 100% with you, Brompton is indeed quite an expensive bike, but I see what this price is paid for and I would argue it is rather justified, exactly as you have said (at least based on the value that the bike delivers to cyclists like you and me). All the best with your and your wife’s cycling adventures :)
these things are 4500 euros now wtf I remember in 2008 it was like 800-1200, shoulda gotten one then now I'm never buying
@@geert574 well, inflation hits everything unfortunately, but I think only T lines are as expensive as 4.5k euros, A line is below £1k by default and C line is smth around £1.3k-£1.5k.
This video of yours is exceptionally well made considering all aspects I can think of. Really, really well done! It is great fun watching it. Thank you very much, Stas.
@@OliverNeill-22 thank you very much for your kind words, Oliver, appreciate you feedback very much :)
Are most parts metric ?
@@philippecasteleyn9327 Hi Philippe, what do you mean by metric in this context?
@@staskucherenko Metric as in Napoleon as opposed to imperial.
@@philippecasteleyn9327 loool, that I understand, that it is cm rather than inches :) but do you ask whether components are measured via metric system rather than imperial?
@@staskucherenko Yes, specialy the bolts and nuts. I had a Mercedes Leatherman, it fell apart, and I cannot fix it any more. I understand that sadly the wheels are in inches, but that is 2.54 cm.
@@philippecasteleyn9327 to the best of my knowledge it should be in metric units, like dimensions of all the Allen keys are in mm (with 5mm being the most common one). Also, just checked my beloved Brompton toolkit and everything these is in mm, so if you prefer metric measurements - you should be fine.
Subbed after first video. Love your content. On a Tern now but love the comfort of the Bromptons. Just not the price. 😬
@@hoser7706 thanks a lot for your kind words and for subscribing :) Fully with you on both comfort and price on Brompton’s tbh :)
Do you not already have a tool kit and inner tube built into the main frame?
@@natleroux1 exactly, so I usually carry 2 inner tubes - one in the main frame, and another one - in the frame bag, to really minimize the chance of me having a flat tyre in the middle of nowhere. I managed to destroy 2 inner tubes on London to Brighton ride last year, so now carry both all the time just in case. Regarding the toolkit - indeed, I usually carry it in the frame itself, and all of these additional bits, like chain links, patches and so in - in the frame bag. Toolkit is a ridiculously useful item, super happy with it so far, and I ended up using it often enough to always have it in the bike.
These are pros and cons for a foldable bike not pros and cons for a brompton over other foldable bikes
@@migzreyes4010 Thanks for your comment! This is a fair point, lots of the arguments I mention in the video are applicable to foldable bike in general, however there are several aspects specific to Brompton that I also talk about, like wheel size, 3-way fold design, Brompton pricing and reselling value and so on. But to you point - I am very curious about how different or similar is cycling experience on other foldable bikes like Birdy or foldable bikes from Decathlon, so please share if you have any first-hand experience!
Thank you Stas, a very honest and in depth review.
@@harvardfacebook7372 thanks for your comment, glad the video was helpful!
Wish I had seen this earlier, I have that case, same complaints, disappointed in the case big time
@@Bustah Hi Bustah, thanks for sharing, I am rather with you about it. Did you find any alternative solutions, or sticking with the bag for the time being, regardless of all its downsides?
@@staskucherenko using it for now regardless :(

very useful,3ku
Where can we find a list of the winners? Thanks.
Hi David, I don’t think they were published tbh. There is a wiki article about BWC, giving the list of winners, but only until 2016 - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brompton_World_Championship

Стас, видно на видео как вы похудели! Это только один велосипед или в комплексе еда, другой спорт?
Алексей, добрый день, спасибо за ваш комментарий )) С велосипеда все началось, но потом добавил силовые тренировки и поменял питание / начал делать интервальные голодовки. Велосипед сам по себе сжигает много энергии (за длинную тренировку на пару часов в среднем темпе можно спалить 2-3к калорий), но потом очень растет аппетит и метаболизм быстро приспосабливается чтобы эффективнее расходовать энергию, что уменьшает эффективность похудения. Силовые тренировки в первую очередь нужны чтобы увеличить мышечную массу, что повышает базовый расход энергии в состоянии покоя, и по большому счету позволяет есть больше и при этом не набирать вес. Ну и диета - наверное самый эффективный инструмент, из того что я читал, можно многими способами оптимизировать диету, но в любом случае главный принцип - есть меньше калорий чем сжигается в день. Интервальные голодовки - тоже штука неоднозначная. Мне этот инструмент очень нравится, так как это в первую очередь очень удобно, плюс есть некоторые исследования, которые говорят что в целом периодические голодовки имеют преимущества для здоровья, но с ними есть риск потери мышечной массы, так что есть плюсы и минусы.
Awesome
Thanks :)
Awesome experience, thank you for sharing
My pleasure, thanks for your comment, glad you liked it :)
Watching this got me to the shed to measure my bike, then the Kallax I have in the study. Going to IKEA soon for that great idea. Don't know why I haven't done before now. Thank you. (I'm sure this is what a lot of bike shops do too)
Sure, happy to help :)
Great insights. You have convinced me to get one brompton
Thanks :) Welcome to the fold, as they say :)
@staskucherenko thanks mate. Joining the fold for the new adventure with my brompton.
As a Heavy Dane (Not a Great Dane!) I would have profited from the hill, as I would have had an extra fast start by that, but sadly I didn't see this Event advertised in Denmark??? Why not? We are rather famous when it comes to cycling! Finn. Denmark
It is like an Old-timer Le-Mans Start, where the Drivers had to run to their cars, start and then drive on! I would have loved to Participate on my now - much less than a former 2019 SuperlightM6LXBrompton (below 9 kilo with mudguards, as a Dane!) but my dear Wife has forbidden me to ride in "Areas hit by Obvious Insanity!", and which are riding left, as also our many times visited, Premium, Vacation Place on Malta! So I sadly never managed to ride it on Malta also 🥲! I would most likely have been killed by that? Finn. Denmark
Best bike for people with bad backs. Easy to carry.
Fully with you! Rolling bike around when folded / semi-folded helps a lot! Plus just carrying the bike while unfolded with saddle or just holding the central tube is reasonably comfortable. I was looking for some options to carry it on the back, like a backpack, but didn’t find any suitable solution so far.
Стас, здравствуйте! У меня копия бромптона, очень ей доволен, но отдаю должную дань уважения и благодарности создателям и промоутерам этого замечательного велосипеда в оригинале! Вопрос такой - если велосипед не марки "бромптон" с ним наверное участвовать в таком соревновании нельзя? ) Welcome to Moscow, someday! )
Стас, какая была максимальная скорость?
Алексей, привет. Думаю миль 25-30 в час, на маршруте было много достаточно крутых поворотов и не было длинных прямых сегментов , так что вряд ли много людей разгонялись сильно быстрее.
Hi Stas, a great day and lovely to meet you ( sorry for getting your name wrong 😮 ) The video is great, I'm going to be forwarding it to friends and family 👍
No worries, great to meet you as well! Thanks a lot for your kind words and for sharing the video with your friends and family :)
Great post Stas , well done for the interviews , nice to see and hear other riders perspectives, and also what they're wearing. Looks like you had fun. Did the kilt slow you down when it caught the wind :)
Thanks a lot for your kind words :) It was a great fun indeed, both the race itself and all the vibe and acitivities around it! Regarding the kilt - I was surprised how comfortable it is as a part of cycling kit, as it can be combined with regular cycling shorts seamlessly! It is indeed probably not the most aerodynamic piece, but given that I am overall as aero as a brick - I guess it didn't hurt all that much :)
@@staskucherenko Brilliant !!! :)
Great video seeing from the racers' view. Lovely to meet you. I had a great day watching. Maybe next year I'll race.
Thanks a lot! Likewise, great to meet you! Hope you see you during the BWC again next year :)
Was great meeting you. See you next year for sure. *goes off to start training* 💪🏾
Likewise, great to meet you in person and thanks a lot for the interview :) Hope to see you again during forthcoming Brompton events ))
Hi Stas it was a great day well done Brompton. You can see me running to the wrong bike after the sprint ooops. Really hoping they run it again next year and I will put a flagpole on my ride!
Thanks for your comment, Jamie :) To be honest, that was my biggest fear as well, literally just to grab a wrong bike in the heat of the moment or see my belowed P-line cruising away with smbd else :) Falgpole is a actually a very nice idea!
Just completed the first 16km in my recently purchased Brompton following a few years of protracted recovery from injury . I feel as though I have entered another world of cycling and your videos are helping me expand on the enjoyment. Thank you and well done 👍
Thanks a lot for sharing, very happy that my videos were helpful :) Regarding the world of cycling - 100% with you, didn't really realise it exists until I started cycling myself few years ago and now it is probably one of my favourite things to do! Wish you all the best with your cycling adventures!
Hi Stas, It looks like it was a fabulous day. I really liked the competitor perspective. I've only had my Brompton for about a month, but I'm really enjoying it. Yes freedom indeed.
Indeed, it was a really fun experience, enjoyed it a lot! And regarding the freedom - this point also resonated so much with me, it's probably true for any bike, but specifically true for foldable bikes and Bromotons. Since you can bring the bike anywhere and explore - the world is your oyster :)
Great video. I was a participant and enjoyed it!
Thanks, same with me, liked the event a lot!

@@sld678 indeed, I enjoyed the event quite a lot! Looking forward to the next BWC, hopefully maybe it will even happen the next year!
Thanks Stas. Very useful.
Thanks for your feedback, glad it was helpful :)
Today I was coming back from work, when a wild boar appeared on the narrow road. I was able to take a sharp turn on my Brompton and started to cycle in small circles, waiting as this parent-boar helped its younglings in crossing the road. I am clumsy, so if I was driving a bigger bike, I would need to step down from it and walk, hoping boars won't attack. So I highly reccomend Brompton for boar-infested cities.
Wow, that’s quite a story, thanks for sharing :) One more perk of the bike to consider ))
