Hi Hannah, sorry to have missed the Brilliant Bikes gang but had a great day. My wife and I went in heat 2 and were last away, unfolding under pressure gave us fumbly fingers! My first time down the ramp was a bit nail biting, by lap three i was throwing myself down with abandon, comfortable in the knowledge that I was in easy reach of several excellent hospitals 😉 Though my wife and I are into our 70's I still felt very much a part of the whole experience, so many lovely friendly people.
Thank you for covering this event and for bringing joy to our lives once again! As a very old Brompton user I admire that "have a go" spirit. Almost as much fun as the surprise test of waterproof Brompton bags by randomly jumping into a swimming pool.
Great review of the day. I was there and said hello. Also featured in Heat 7 and just seen how slow my unfold was. I agree the organisation left something to be desired and sorry you missed out on the women's final. I hadn't heard anything about that either.
Thank you for sharing it was great seeing what the race was really like as I sit here in California. I might even stop by your shop on my next visit to London in October. Cheers! Ray
Wish I’d seen you there to say how much I like your videos, but my dog was in the basket of my T line and she was getting a bit fed up. 😂 Enjoyed the bits of this video that were in focus. 😉
@@brilliantbikes ah bless…glad to see you are in fine fettle..sounds awful....if truth be told i think i would see meeting you as a life goal above meeting the guy who runs Brompton 😂 Keep up the great content ❤️
Completely BRILLIANT as usual 🙌 Well Done and wish I could have been there - hate queues too and Bromptons are not only faster than Lamborghinis, they are also a damn sight more stylish! 😂😂😁
Great video. My 2 cents which is all its worth... Ive been running Tubalitos on Tan Ones for over a year without a single fail. I live on a rural island with reasonably poor roads. They are so fast I cant imagine ever using anything else.
Thanks for watching - and for sharing Our (can I say heavy) mechanic also tried them for winter commuting combined with Schwalbe One tyres donated by a customer who was swapping to something else They lasted 6 months over the winter with no issues Must be our camera mans fault - as you can see his eyes are rubbish - without glasses he films out of focus - so probably didn't see some obstacle!
That was an absolute joy to watch. Thank you so much and what a thrill to meet Will and for adding instant value to your shop's autographed T-Line. What are you going to do with it? Sell or keep?
Wow you guys really captured the atmosphere and organised chaos so well! You could have won the final and best outfit! So good of you to help promote smaller RUclipsrs like that guy Simon. Never heard of him or his channel. 🤣
HI! It was great meeting you! Sorry I barged into you. You looked scared of me 🥲 I'm the guy with the orange costume and yellow hair, I'm featured on your video! you can see me running at the 9 minute mark 😅🤣 Love your videos!
It was my first ever BWC and I absolutely loved it! My unfold was a disaster - I did a David Millar (if anyone remembers his troublesome start in The Mall). It was good to meet Hannah too. I really hope to be able to do it again next year.
"I'm not going to race, I'm just going to enjoy myself". You can't help yourself Hannah. New name should be Hannahnochio!! Well done. It was thoroughly entertaining.
Thank you so much for watching! I know I’m rubbish I just did not want to hurt myself - mountain bike race in Canada to look forward too…. I’m planned to just bumble…. Then started enjoying it….
As a little more than Heavy Dane (not a Great Dane) I would have loved to meet You, but sadly I wasn't able to participate, from being banned to ride in the Wrong Side riding Countries by my dear wife! I am good going down hills though!! Finn. Denmark
@@brilliantbikes I am 76, but my Brompton has become lighter for each year since when I bought it in 2019, during Covid19, so today it is below 9 kilo and still with mudguards. And with all the frame Protection to buy as Brompton has made a lousy job from the Factory! Clear Tape! Finn 🙂
Thanks for watching - and the great question We didn't, though we almost did a completely different version - where we were going to do bike / spec checks on as many Brompton's as possible and get their owners reasoning For us on a 5 speed P line and 4 speed T Line - we both wished that we had had 56T chainrings - though the course was fairly flat Next time!
We have just spent 10 days in Fiji on our two T-line 12 speeds on the roughest roads, and we have had no punctures or damaged tubes. The tubes are not rubbish.
I think they can generally puncture more easily than conventional ones but they still hold for a good while and can withstand some serious abuse! If you install them inside thicker tires (Marathons) they can probably live as much as conventional tubes!
Please could you comment whether the T-line was a definite advantage. Scrutinising the videos there seemed to an alphabet soup across the range of entries !!!
Yes there was a massive mix of bikes! I thinking depended on what you are comfortable with! The faster riders did have bigger chain rings on the front! Thanks for watching!
Great video. What T-Line do you have as your test bike for Brilliant Bikes? Is it the T-One or 4 Speed version? I’m interested in testing the single speed version.
...well the Tubolitos are definitely great to puncture... I still need several hundreds km pro tube to get to that even in worse conditions... And if you put them inside the Marathons instead of the Ones you may delay the fatalities even more...
Brilliant video! The bike that was filming, what freehub / gearing setup was used? Lovely noise it makes. About to buy my first Brompton and just consuming knowledge at the moment
Thanks for watching and the kind comment The camera was mounted under the saddle rails so picked up the lovely (though some don't like it) of the rear wheel / free hub It's the standard P Line 4 speed rear wheel - it makes a sound like no previous Brompton The 12 speed doesn't make that same sound (as it combines the 4 speed sprockets with a 3 speed Sturmey Archer hub)
I’ve got a feeling that the women only final was a bit ad hoc. Possibly because there hadn’t been any women in the first 5 of any of the rounds. About an hour or so before the final, they announced that up to 50 women can take part in a sprint race after the final. I loved it, but it wasn’t as well organised as previous events. I’m grateful that it happened at all though. Can’t believe I didn’t get a medal to add to my collection though!
Some people get a tattoo of their favourite rock stars signature , you got bike frame autograph :) Will you protect it with a lacquer ? #bromptonfangirl #shouldhavebeeninthewomanesfinal
This lady sits high on her bike,and which is as should be perhaps(for leg extension). Am older ,and like to have the saddle lower where my toes/feet can touch the floor when eaisly stopping. Lazy mmaybe. I mean me

Enjoyed the bits of this video that were in focus. 😉
Shame we missed you! Thanks for watching! I think he is trying to be artistic!
Great video! I thought about going but stupidly decided not to. But you’ve convinced me… see you next year.

That was brilliant. Made me laugh with the kilt shot filming.😆
Thank you so much for watching!

Excellent Hannah. I wish I could have been there
Maybe next year 😀. It really was a fab day! Thank you for watching!
Great video Hannah and congrats on completing the course unscathed 😀🎉
lol! I have a bad history of racing Brompton’s - one broken shoulder and torn rotator cuff…. So phew! Thank you for watching!
@@brilliantbikes ah bless…glad to see you are in fine fettle..sounds awful....if truth be told i think i would see meeting you as a life goal above meeting the guy who runs Brompton 😂 Keep up the great content ❤️
Wow wow wow! Wonderfull video.
Thank you so much! And thank your for watching! What a great day!
Completely BRILLIANT as usual 🙌 Well Done and wish I could have been there - hate queues too and Bromptons are not only faster than Lamborghinis, they are also a damn sight more stylish! 😂😂😁
Thank you so much! I’d rather a Brompton everyday!
Thank you for watching
That blue and red colour scheme at 1:10 is absolutely beautiful
It was fab! And what a great day out! Thanks for watching!
Lovely to see you Hannah and Andrew..❤ Nice video of BWC

It was a fab day!!!
Hah! You filmed the back of my head in the queue! I thought I recognised the voice behind me but I was too shy to say hello 🤣
lol! Shame! Hello 👋. Next time!
Thanks for watching!

Ah the stressful unfold! It’s funny how it becomes hard!
Thanks for watching!

God that looks so fun!!!
It really was a great day! Thanks for watching!
It was a great day and a lot of fun
I totally agree it was great fun!
Thanks for watching!
You are the new number 2.
I am not a number, i am a free man.
Who is number 1?
Thanks for watching!!
Awesome
Thank you and thank you for watching!
Well done Hannah, shame it was disorganised and you missed the Women's final, that's a pain in the A!
Thank you for watching! I know gutted! But it was a fun day!
Was it combined with a Bike Exhibition. I haven't seen it advertised? Finn
As a little more than Heavy Dane (not a Great Dane) I would have loved to meet You, but sadly I wasn't able to participate, from being banned to ride in the Wrong Side riding Countries by my dear wife! I am good going down hills though!! Finn. Denmark
Would be lovely to meet you too! Please let us know if you are in the UK, with or without a bike (you can always borrow one 😀) thank you for watching!
@@brilliantbikes I am 76, but my Brompton has become lighter for each year since when I bought it in 2019, during Covid19, so today it is below 9 kilo and still with mudguards. And with all the frame Protection to buy as Brompton has made a lousy job from the Factory! Clear Tape! Finn 🙂
Out of curiosity if you guys noticed what was the mix of 44T/50T/56T bikes ?
Thanks for watching - and the great question
We didn't, though we almost did a completely different version - where we were going to do bike / spec checks on as many Brompton's as possible and get their owners reasoning
For us on a 5 speed P line and 4 speed T Line - we both wished that we had had 56T chainrings - though the course was fairly flat
Next time!
Oh, I guess there is no longer the jacket and tie requirement? I rather liked that lol. Fun vid!
Thanks for watching! Doh why do we always forget something! This year no cycle Lyra!
I didn't read the memo so arrived with jacket, shirt and tie, but so did a lot of people !
@@grahamricketts-bq1ft I think it should be reinstated! It adds a bit of, I don't know, class? to the affair lol.
We have just spent 10 days in Fiji on our two T-line 12 speeds on the roughest roads, and we have had no punctures or damaged tubes. The tubes are not rubbish.
I think they can generally puncture more easily than conventional ones but they still hold for a good while and can withstand some serious abuse! If you install them inside thicker tires (Marathons) they can probably live as much as conventional tubes!
I saw you there but didn't get chance to say hi. Isn't Will so lovely?
Hello!!! Sorry we missed you! Next year!
Thank you so much for watching!
Oh my word Hannah love your outfit
Thank you so much! I was going to ride my orange bike - last minute change!
Thank you for watching
Please could you comment whether the T-line was a definite advantage. Scrutinising the videos there seemed to an alphabet soup across the range of entries !!!
Yes there was a massive mix of bikes! I thinking depended on what you are comfortable with! The faster riders did have bigger chain rings on the front!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Hannah, fab to meet you at the WBC.... and you beat me 😂
Nice to meet you too! Thanks for watching!!
Cracking vid ,what type of Brompton did you use ?
I used one of our shop demo bikes, a 4 speed T line with low bars! Sorry we missed you, next time, thank you for watching!
Great video. What T-Line do you have as your test bike for Brilliant Bikes? Is it the T-One or 4 Speed version? I’m interested in testing the single speed version.
Ah sorry, it’s a 4 speed! You could ride it in second gear and see how you get on? Thanks for watching!
...well the Tubolitos are definitely great to puncture... I still need several hundreds km pro tube to get to that even in worse conditions... And if you put them inside the Marathons instead of the Ones you may delay the fatalities even more...
Brilliant video! The bike that was filming, what freehub / gearing setup was used? Lovely noise it makes. About to buy my first Brompton and just consuming knowledge at the moment

The camera was mounted under the saddle rails so picked up the lovely (though some don't like it) of the rear wheel / free hub
It's the standard P Line 4 speed rear wheel - it makes a sound like no previous Brompton
The 12 speed doesn't make that same sound (as it combines the 4 speed sprockets with a 3 speed Sturmey Archer hub)
video is great but can't help notice the blurry footage at key moments, some are overexposed too. otherwise, great video.
what helmet are you wearing, great colour?

I understand it was! Shame we had left!
😊 Klasse

excellent outfit
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!

# wish we’d stayed!!! Oh well fingers crossed for next year! Not sure how to look after it on the T line! P / C is easy!
Thanks for watching
that case when you give your phone to your parents so that they can take it off you normally.
How much did it cost to participate in the BWC London?
Thanks for watching! It was free 😀
Brompton 💯 > Lamborghini
It was great fun! Glad we beat him! 😀 thanks for watching!
This lady sits high on her bike,and which is as should be perhaps(for leg extension). Am older ,and like to have the saddle lower where my toes/feet can touch the floor when eaisly stopping. Lazy mmaybe. I mean me
Thanks for watching. Yes I like my seat post a bit higher to pedal.
