What a delightfully eccentric way of testing out a waterproof bag. Good to know that should I ever cycle through a swimming pool my goods will be mostly dry at the other end
Great vid as always. I have one of these but I don’t love it as it never looks very neat due to the tightness of the closing straps. Also, wish they had brighter colours - be great to be reflective.
I sewed D rings on the strap to loop back through because after long rides on bumpy terrain, and the bag with some weight in it, the Velcro pulls loose.
The one thing I love about my ridiculously expensive Brompton, is the dedicated carrier in front, being able to accept a frame for many purposes, as my T-bag and my "free frame" with extra straps for many purposes! This Pouch is unfit for use like this. Finn. Denmark
" Brilliant" as always. But about time we had an in depth review of the new 12 speed 😊. From what I've seen and read so far it's not too well received. But value your opinion above all others as even if firmly tongue in cheek you get your point across be it good or bad. 😏
Many thanks for watching and for the suggestion! We are waiting for our demo bike to arrive (hopefully this week!), it’s a shame it will arrive after we have had stock bikes. We have only heard good things, can you point us in the direction of the negative views so we have some pointers for our video.
@brilliantbikes Give "Bromptons latest joke", Small wheeled wonder a look and listen. It was the first review I saw and stayed with me as he sort of had a point. It beats me though, why can't they just put a good hub on the bike instead of a derailleur which is too low down and a tad light duty?
In a proper test you would have driven the Brompton into the pool with bags attached Need something to keep my arm magazines dry. Didn't know that it snowed in England.
And I could easily make a 12 speed of my 2019 Superlight by adding a double chainring in front, but it would be a - fraction more complicated to use, than the Original Brompton 12 speed, I suppose? But honestly I hardly know why I should need more gears, as I have needed to walk going up a steep hill, but riding my Brompton at that speed, was mostly ridiculous, as I could - walk faster than riding my bike, so why continue?

Another video in the bag, for a moment couldn’t see the wood for the trees, you have obviously given a whole new meaning to money laundering, song for the video = Bags = Claire.
