Looks a cool bike and I prefer the larger sized wheels. I usually ride a Dahon which has 20 inch wheels and I prefer the larger sized wheels for all-round use, but add the Brompton folding style and I think the G-Line is a great bike!
Hey Rizal, I love your content especially when you take a ride out to eat... 👍🏻😉. You need the G-Line in your life and videos, it will suit you well... Look into a small size instead of the medium too.. 😉🤟🏻🤟🏻
That’s the large size they have you to test ride - you can tell by the seat post. I think; to be fair, the sizing is more about reach preference than height of the rider.
It’s definitely a large. You can tell as that is the only size with the extendable seat post. Interesting that it felt right to you - I think I’d go for a large also.
For the 20' there's some competitive bikes on the market: I love the Tern Link "BioBikes" (I own the Link D7i), they also do not have a steep price tag, albeit not as cool as the Brompton. What I see from Videos: The rear carrier (with 20' it would finally be possible to use a bigger rear saddle bag) is quite a bit short (as compared to the Tern), so it's likely to get heel strike (heel collides with bag), if you want to use a rear saddle bag. this is especially annoying, if you want to get the electric Version, where you'd need new bags due to different front connector ... On the electric side: The Ahooga Max (manufactured in EU) seems to be a worthy competitor ...
@@stevenbell9589 Hi Stiven if you interested with G line my advice is, go and try ride first so can make your own decision after that. P line is very nice bike is lighter than the one you have C line. Purchase with the one you comfortable with. I hope that help. Cheers and good luck 😉
@@rizalsapi007 I think I'm going for the p line as its lighter my idea is keep buying a new brompton every year and as brompton bikes hold there price really well they are an investment then some years down the line I can sell them all and invest in a T line most of my rides are on roads and cycle paths
@@micky7028 Yes, as a bike and therefore you need to follow the rules for bikes - special ticket on IC trains, not allowed during rush hour and I'm certain you will be rejected on a bus
I don't understand, why joking about getting a G line from Brompton, they should support people like you whom are the real sellers who inspire us to buy these products and go out to explore, not those ones standing at the shops.
Nice review, Rizal, looks like my sort of Brompton, tho the electric version at £3499 is £1200 more than my electric Boardman and about a kilo heavier.
Amazing video as always Rizal! Would you buy a G Line? I'm torn as I've owned A,C and Electric. I was in the market for the P Line but was waiting for the G Line announcement first before decision. Now, the G Line looks to be the better all rounder bike. As I moved out of London but I wonder on tours and even visit to cities. Will the G Line be too big to transport?
@@Jrw_SB Thank you, if you like outdoors activities G line will be perfect 👌 for transportation is bit heavier and bigger , compare normal size Brompton. I need money 💰 hehe. For the moment I will keep with my love one Brompton 2014, except Brompton give me sample 🤣 Cheers

I can't think of a use case that would get me to the point of buying a G Line. I want a folding bike that is ideal for easily hopping on and off public transport and this is not it. Like wise for touring it's big and lacks the gear range of to full size touring bike. So I might as well put up with a bit of discomfort on trains and take my touring bike, at least it's easier to carry all my stuff and gives me a decent set of climbing gears...
@@dooley-ch hi James, probably yes if just use for city easy ride normal Brompton bike is the choice. But if use for outdoors activities G line will be brilliant. Thank you
Folded, it's only a few inches bigger than a standard Brompton. I've been seeing this gripe everywhere and it really confuses me. And the bike is only 33lb with fenders and rack. Nothin. My daily commuter ebike is 58lb so that 33lb machine is a feather!
11:17 I like the idea of a bigger frame, because I feel hunched over a standard from and it seems better for taller riders and maybe it's more comfortable for longer rides. I'm fairly strong so perhaps the extra weight won't be an issue. I like the wide handle bars with grips too, I currently use ergon ones.......its good to have the option if riding alone canal paths too on gravel, its pretty uncomfortable with my standard Brompton......my only question is will be as reliable with the different hub gears ? Another good point is riding on tarmac with small pothole might be easier too......the only way I'll find out is by testing it.
I love your happy go lucky attitude 👍🏻

@@darrencoates hi if I not mistaken the size is M. I didn’t set the seat post before I ride so it was to high. Cheers

You ask if you can bring the G line on trams, trains etc - in short; it's too big, app 8 cm on 2 of l*w*h, so now it's a bike, not a "handluggage"
@@Brunello4Life Thanks for your info, cheers
Yes but you can still bring it on public transport
@@micky7028 Yes, as a bike and therefore you need to follow the rules for bikes - special ticket on IC trains, not allowed during rush hour and I'm certain you will be rejected on a bus
Any link to purchase from the shop
@@matahari0316 I will look, but normally go to Brompton website and purchase there.. but I am not sure the item available or not. Cheers

@@ianzthingz1 Thank you. I think electric Brompton is around 16Kg. If you have already like similar that will be fine for you. Cheers
@@rizalsapi007 My boardman is 15.5kg, so not a lot of difference except in price :)
@@ianzthingz1 great 👍
I can almost all but guarantee that the Brompton will climb better than the fazua system.
A good bike!
Not for me, I prefer a lighter one. (I own a CLine and it is 'heavy' for me).
@@fatimaSM236 yes it it nice bike. Is heavier than other Brompton. C line is great. Cheers

Anyone else worried about the spindle at the rear that looks like it’s exactly the same as the p-line/ t-tine.
@@carywatmore hi ya what will be happen if same as p or t line? It’s look fine and the rear is wider and bigger. Cheers
What does that mean?

The G-Line has a niche and has its limitations, but for flinging it in the back of the car and going on weekend adventures, it’s perfect.
Folded, it's only a few inches bigger than a standard Brompton. I've been seeing this gripe everywhere and it really confuses me. And the bike is only 33lb with fenders and rack. Nothin. My daily commuter ebike is 58lb so that 33lb machine is a feather!
