Brompton is the best folding bike when it comes to how small it can fold, but there is definitely room for weight reduction - and this is something I have explored in this video!

As always, my approach was to reduce weight as mush as possible, keep the functionality (mudguards, gears, rack) and build a nice looking bike.
Let me know what you think of the final result!

Thanks to the following companies that helped me with the build
