i am currently trialing Brompton bike hire prior to committing to buy a Brompton on C2W or eBay.

I would like to buy a bag now as my messenger bag is making me sweaty. What is the STW recommendation? Price will be a consideration.

Sorry I know there was Brompton thread a few days ago but I have lost it.

Thanks

Quite a few nice near new bromptons and luggage on gumtree but tread with care, a few dodgy sellers. I contacted a seller and he answered all queries to give me confidence it wasnt nicked. Ad got pulled and i got a warning email from gummy it was a scam.

Used prices on gummy are way too high, watch the ads over time the same ones keep getting repeated. Try a few cheeky offers.

I used the Carradice City Folders until my Brompton got nicked, was working on a project that involved two nights away a week and it was perfect for carrying my work and spare clothes etc - maybe too big for every day.

The Chapman Bag looks fab too.

Same as above, I use the Brompton C bag.. well made and plenty of pockets. I also had a Carradice for a while but flogged it.

By far my favourite is the Gilman.. looks very nice.. just cant find one in this colour..
