I have just taken possession of the new Nile Cruise Brompton and I’m really pleased with it.
Barbara and my kids bought it for my birthday and I have had to wait for 7 weeks whilst it was hand-built at the Bropmton factory. You get a choice of colours and as you can see mine is canary yellow with navy extremities. Lovely! Cant’ see that getting lost.
I picked it up yesterday and cycled over to my mum’s apartment. On arrival I set about “folding” the bike. Twenty minutes later I gave up and carried it up to her apartment. After about an hour I left mum’s and came back to the car park and spent another 20 minutes or so trying to put it back into a “rideable” state. Trouble was it was lashing down so by the time I had managed to put it back together again and ride home I was soaked.
Still it’s a great bike and one that I can take with me on the train or in the back of the car. Just need to get the hang of the “fold” and “unfold” business.
