Anyone with Brompton Electrics after several years of use, I’d like your feedback please as I’m researching buying one. I’ve had a go at folding one in a shop and it looks great for the van in regards to space.
- Can you charge it in the California?
- Do you ever charge the pack in campsites, cafes?
- Is the bag to stow it worth it?
- Have you taken it on a plane (& how?)
- Do you use panniers, rucksacks or a trailer?
- How does it cope on mild rough tracks (that you can get around campsites)
- Any other tips or advise would be appreciated.
Thank you!
We've had our Brompton electrics for a couple of years, but we don't take them in the Cali. We do take them in the Golf where we find they just fit in the boot, still allowing us to fit in two aircraft cabin bags plus bits. So sorry, can't give you Cali specific info.
Bought the Brompton travel bags, very expensive, very good quality, but never used, make them too big for our use. Use large stong plastic bags from Costco. I think a lot of people use IKEA bags.
For sale: Two Brompton travel bags, new and unused!
Use the bikes on rough gravel tracks and tow paths, not comfortable, but doable!
Found the Brompton service agents useless if you have a problem.
