di naman talaga para sa lahat ang Brompton...

pero the reason we have one is portability.

if saame weight sya sa regular sized gravel bikes, then parang ang hirap ijustify yung cost of buying one.

Pinas setting tayo, so sure ako na may car din mga Brompton users

... there are clones selling for a fraction of the price of the original...

just like any other expensive brand...

there's a cheaper alternative.

pero matutuwa ka ba talaga knowing na di mo naabot yung main goal mo?

owning the thing is a very satisfying feeling.
and souring grapes can only go so far.

so, is there an available acceptable replacement brand?
