Get an electric Brompton?
- bagacrap 7y agoI've looked into folding electrics so I could take one on the BART. Many of them are too small if you're 6' or more, and the others seem like a PITA to actually portage anywhere like up stairs. Even if you can get one into your workplace though that doesn't solve the problem for anywhere else you might go, like a restaurant. And if you're only concerned about work I would hope to Ja that your employer has secure bicycle parking since it's far cheaper/more compact than car parking and probably correlates to healthier employees.
- unicornporn 7y ago> Many of them are too small if you're 6' or more That's what the telescopic seatpost is for. "550mm but will extend up to 710mm so suits taller riders up to approximately 6'6" or 1.98m."[1] Working on the saddle to handlebar drop is another thing. But the H-Type handlebar with the 60mm higher stem will likely solve that. Of course you can bring your folded Brompton to a restaurant. Leave it in the wardrobe! :) [1] https://www.brompton.com/brompton-swe/uk-store/parts/essentials/telescopic-seatpost-in-steel/c-36/c-1032/p-1241 https://www.brompton.com/brompton-swe/uk-store/parts/essenti...
