Awesome, doesn't pack as small as the Brompton, but 10kg is really super light.

Just an FYI to Brompton electric owners as there seem to be a few on here: https://ch.brompton.com/recall
There is a voluntary recall on the electric kit. Seems like it can be fixed with a firmware update and no major issues but worth getting it fixed.

Looks great. Price ? Looks like they have missed a trick, in not making the front wheel to swing round, to make it compact like the Brompton.Only 10.3 kg

Article on the difficulties Brompton has in protecting its technical fold.
Brompton puts the brakes on copycats, but it’s not over yet
With commuters reluctant to use public transport in the current coronavirus crisis, bicycles, especially folding ones, are likely to be a growth market. The sleek (and, some would say, iconic) shape of the folding Brompton Bicycle is a familiar sight across the world’s major cities. In 1975...

Just the posting like don't want to read. I want positive vibes, as we still have to collect our Bromptons, promised for delivery on May 21st. The firmware problem, what ever that is, has supposed to be sorted on bikes produced after Feb 21. The dream is going south.

The firmware problems I have are nothing to do with the safety recall. Last time they couldn’t find the fault and replaced the bike eventually after I insisted. This time, we’ll see…
It’s a great bike when it works.

Ok then. From the linked article:
So, which is the best motor?
There is no longer just one best eMTB motor. The market has become too differentiated and on account of the countless variables and customisation options, there’s no way of rating the different motors in isolation either. The best motor is only as good as the bike into which it’s built. If the basic concept of the bike doesn’t work, even the best motor won’t be able to transform it into a good eMTB. Think carefully about when, how, and where you want to ride. Once you’ve figured that out, we’ve compiled an overview on the following pages to show you which motor is most suitable for you and your riding

My electric Brompton is brilliant. A life-saver for someone with both knees replaced. No problems (yet!). It fits under the rear shelf of my T6.1 ocean. No need for a bike rack. The electric Brompton and California are MFEO.

Mine were both brilliant right up until the moment they were not. Neither of them lasted more than 400 miles. Brompton customer services are brilliant, which is a relief.

The one I want has to be a folder to fit under the rear shelf so that limits the choices. The Tern Vektron S10 ticks all my boxes although I'd prefer the belt drive and enviolo auto transmission. Cleaner and low maintenance.Ok then. From the linked article:

It’s a good choice, but a completely different beast to the Brompton. Much bigger folded and much heavier.
