More rave reviews for the Brompton Folder.

But really, what is it about some people that need to point out: “Below is a picture of me…. Note my helmet which I always wear when I ride.” That’s nice. When you take a picture of your fancy car, do you point out the seat belts?

I wrote about Brompton here. Too bad they don’t send me one for free. The one big advantage Brompton has over the Swift Folder–also a very good bike and made right here in NYC–is that you can roll the Brompton when it’s folded.

And this use of a folding bike as a shopping cart is brilliant!

    What’s funny is that he’s holding his helmet like a bowling ball.

    You should also look at the Origami Bicycle Company. Their Crane model folds up nice and neat and weighs only 24 lbs! Check it out at http://www.origamibicycles.com

    Cool. And not expensive either. I think I still have my heart set on a Brompton. But I'm not at all certain it's worth the extra money.
