Excellent review! I'm thinking of purchasing a C Line Electric, and this is the best review I've found. You've covered everything I was wondering about, and even a few things I hadn't considered. I particularly liked your observation about how the power assist comes on (abruptly). This will be my first Brompton, and I'd been wondering if I should just go with the standard version. I'm still on the fence, but at the very least feel better informed thanks to your thorough review.
Having lights available without thinking about them on the Brompton is killer ( in a very good way) It is so much hassle having to sort your lights out. I am a big fan of the E Brompton as it suits my commuting needs but I am painfully aware of its limitations which is why I am keen to try companies like ARCC who seem to be innovating. I love the feel of an E bike especially when I don't have the schedule to attain suffering or grovelling in the gutter but I do like to suffer on the bike.
9:31 tbh this is what I like about the brompton! It feels natural and not like a motorcycle. Makes it easier to pay attention to the road, at least for me

Re not assisting soon enough when you start off - starting pedalling with your left leg will kick in sooner than with your right - if that helps
Agree on the way the Brompton assist kicks in. Can't wait for the next version.
I think ARCC and another company called Boost are addressing getting ahead of cars at the lights.
Having seen that part video for uphill, I concluded to buy Electric Brompton although it is very expensive but as an old man liked me. Thanks a lot .
I'm sure you're going to love it! Thank you for the comment 😊
This was the best comparison between the normal Brompton and the electric Brompton.
I have both regular and use electric for my commute uphill to work. I do not sweat on way to work and it's perfect. I love both equally.

Great vid. I would recommend looking at the Honda Jazz or HRV for the ultimate Brompton storage. The rear cinema seats are just made for Bromptons.

I don't mind either. I think the film maker might use a lower gear to start with.
Great review! I love the frost+sekers bag!
Very good the Cardiff hill without assistance !
Excellent video. Where did you buy your saddle bag from?
Nice review thanks.
Great review.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the review!
You're welcome 😊
0:34 2700£? for 6 gears and electric? Its more than 3000 $ in Germany and can be even more expensive depending on the colour
4:05. Is that a mouse 🐭?
What is the name of this bag you got behind your sit?
Nice bag too, i have to figure out how to fix it !

If only they work with ARCC rather than Williams F1… If I’m migrating to electric version, would rather get the ARCC…
ARCC do some excellent work. I have a video on their Brompton conversion too ruclips.net/video/yOZUdY72UCw/видео.html
@@OneLessCarClosed Thanks! Indeed their design addresses the list of concerns that you have
6 is much better.
What saddle bag is that? Looks ideal!
