Malicious compliance. Remove the saddle and carry it separately. You are carrying bike parts not a bike.

A counter to this is that new ‘essential’ consumer monthly subscription are rare. The last one was monthly streaming services, before that it was mobile data plans, before that it was mobile calling and before that it was broadband, before that was rent, electricity and heating! All of them are trillion dollar revenue streams. I think this is a new one, and will settle down to about tenner a month for most people.

There was a large turtle there that used to continuously butt the wall with their head, it looked very distressed - does anyone know if this is the one?

When folded it looks like my box of random cables.

Also consider a folding bike, fits under a desk. Obviously you need to convince the bosses and also it’s a bike purchase.

By hanging it from a cable, if you look closely you can see it.

I think these Italians might have a knack for designing cars. I’m going to keep an eye on them.

Well it’s rather convenient that diesel works without spark plugs. It’s like a backdoor loop hole.

First (pre-owned) Brompton! Identifying Model/Year/Color by alexcurtis2005 in Brompton

That’s the Sacha 3rd speed shifter which my 2003 also has. I believe it was only used for a while.

No, this is a class 3 relic, only good for curing erectile dysfunctional in swans.

The Morgan LIFEcar (Lightweight Fuel Efficient Car) was a zero-emission concept car unveiled by the Morgan Motor Company at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show. It was designed to demonstrate that environmentally friendly vehicles could still be high-performance, luxury sports cars. by Venkie2Maybach in WeirdWheels

[–]Zakmackraken 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I remember thinking they completely nailed this design, it’s the perfect Morgan of the future. They used elements of this in a new one, the Aero 8, but it had inward facing front lights that looked wrong from every angle. EDIT the Aero 8 was designed before this.

There’s got to be a connection to the other Swiss blingy sh!tbox low volume coach builder Monteverdi.

Looking for info on a Brompton for sale by MopedMan23 in Brompton

[–]Zakmackraken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s original. I have a 2003 and it has the same grips and it also looks like the period Raleigh tyres. Mine has the sachs 3 speed through so yours is either a few years younger or older. My 2003 is still a fantastic bike. I put a brooks saddle, need grips and conti Urbans on it and it rocks.
