    You never show the MIRIDER, but a Brompton was invented in the seventies and not at all intended for Electric Assist. So of course any Set will be an add-on. A Brompton is intended for easy transport as folded and only if necessary, for actual riding, as the small wheels make it a horrible, hard rolling bike! I know as an owner of a now weighing much less and much modified "Superlight" from 2019😁(9 kilo)! A little like "the wheel" it was fine at first try, and can't be made much better if looking different (Near all other are half-hearted tries to make a Copy, and only fold to a much more filling, Half Bike, except those which are direct Copies, now the Patent has run out). I have owned an assisted Makita Folder, but it was absurdly more heavy and only folded half, with its two battery Pack, for a short distance use. My Brompton I may put in the back of my car for driving to Service and also during Vacations, if needing a bike during those. Finn. Denmark

      @@keep-going I have found pictures of the MIRIDER, and it looks smart, but still only fold to a ½ bike, so it isn't an actual competitor to a Brompton. Like the American, former Army type Bike: Montague, which is an Mtb with "normal size" wheels, which also folds ½! I'm sure if needing a bike for their purposes, both are fine in their way, but if needing the Fold, none is better than the Brompton compromize between portability and riding a bike. Finn

    @allanb2906 19 дней назад

    I'm glad that you're enjoying your MiRider. I looked at buying one, well two actually mainly because my wife struggles to walk any distance because of knee issues. In the end I opted for the Brompton electric. The main reason was down the the fold which means that I can get 2 Bromptons in the car plus luggage for uk touring. I couldn't do this with two MiRiders plus luggage. As with most things in life there are trade offs and compatibility was the most important factor for us. I used to put our traditional bikes on roof mounted carriers but I'm getting too old for that and bikes are heavy. Enloy your MiRider and happy cycling.

    There’s no right or wrong with these things, and if you enjoy the Mirider more, job’s a good ‘un. There’s no denying that Brompton’s rate of evolution is somewhat glacial but I can understand why they wouldn’t want to mess with the current folding system to accommodate a battery anywhere other than the front carrier block. I love my Bromptons (I have two!) but may sell both of them to perhaps go for their Titanium model, which is absurdly priced of course.

    • @keep-going
      @keep-going 20 дней назад

      @deldewar5893 you won't notice the difference with the titanium when pedalling. Perhaps trade the two for an electric Brompton. Another suggestion - Lower the gearing on your current Brompton, and you be amazed at the difference. A 42 tooth ring is very cheap to buy.

    @mikefrombournemouth2942 Месяц назад

    Not sure if has a fuse or not. Check with mirider support. Is it still in guarantee? Don't tell that you dropped your keys... Try taking a voltage reading off the battery terminals. One with the charger plugged in and one without the charger. Chances are that the reading with the charger will be higher (fully charged 42 volts). A possible reason for the green light. My battery reading was 42 volts on charge, (it displayed a green light), and 12 volts or something with no charger. Sorry, but a had to buy a new one. Although I believe they can be repaired I found the prices quoted are not far off the cost of a new one.

    • @keep-going

      I think l can repair it. Ebay sells charging ports. So l just have to take it apart and fit a new one. It's a bit awkward to do, but l will buy one and have a go. Only a fiver, so worth trying. I will do a video on this when l get the part.

      lm wishing l hadn't bought one now. I thought l had blown a fuse in the battery, so l opened it up and guess what. There is no fuse. I think that's illegal. It's basically a junk battery that costs £300 to replace. Most reputable e bike batteries all have fuses in them and are easy to replace, but all you can do with the Mirider is buy a new battery. It's outrageous. Did you manage to buy a good bike in the end, Maureen?

      Thanks for that, John. I had my Brompton for 12 years, but it was time for a change. Mirider is better because you can go on most types of trails and can put chunky tyres on it. Everything is integrated, with the battery in the main tube. It's also not a bad fold, and if you have a Honda Jazz, like me, you can put it in the back seating area without folding. I would say go for one if you fancy a change. Overall, l think it's better.
