Bromptons are fairly reliable. But TBF WTF wouldn't be doing a couple of half Mile journeys a few times a week from the train station to the office?
Just get a BMX FFS!

Or walk?

Ah... Yeah. Germany is a special case tho.
They fucking love shit city bikes.
And as brompton are a British brand they will also be an import.

There's also the hipster culture around Bromptons. They have a batshit crazy accessories market, such as titanium racks, seatposts, handlebars, and dedicated Brooks leather saddles.

How are you getting your DH bike up the hill on a steep pirate track, eh?
There were times where I walked more than I rode my bike between trail building and pushing uphill.

Ditto. From 2006-2008, I barely ever rode uphill, I built trail every damn free hour.

Half the reason I never got in with clipless was how hard it was to do push runs in those shoes

Spent pretty much every weekend in the mid 90s pushing a DH bike for 6 hours a day to ride it for maybe 30mins total. Usually hungover.
