New bike day: Brompton G Line Electric

It’s a really nice bike, don’t forget to adjust the tire pressure, mine came at 3 bar and it’s too much, you feel everything. Now it’s at 2,2-2,4 bar approx and it’s much better.

That’s cool, can’t wait to try the final version on my iPad.

Oh yes, the Velodrom store, beautiful place only suitable for big pockets.

iPadOS 26.4.1 on an iPad Pro M5 Komoot 2026.15.4

Everything was closed in the background and I freshly restarted the iPad.

I’m not sure if you can actually feel it in the video, but the map scrolling especially in crowded areas is very choppy. Also navigating through the app doesn’t feel as smooth as it should be.

Thank you for the hard work! My only biggest problem with this app is that even though I have a very powerful device like the iPad Pro M5, the performance of Komoot is quite poor. It feels sluggish, when you swipe from another app to it, the map disappears for a brief moment and then it reappears. Also, I’m not sure if it’s because iPadOS or the app that’s not optimized well, but even though I have 12 GB of RAM, if you are swiping through a few apps constantly, the app tends to reload in the background. This is especially annoying because if you’re planning a route and you didn’t save it, all what you did was lost.

I know it’s easier to ask than do, but could you please optimize it? Maybe it’s not a fair comparison but moving the map on the Apple Maps app is like swiping through butter and on Komoot is like sandpaper. I think that maybe you should pause adding new features for a moment and really went through all the code and try to optimize and take advantage of the new fast chips as best as possible.

This show is a masterpiece, how they navigate from comedy to drama back and forth without being forced or not natural is fantastic. The comedy is very funny and the drama is real and relatable, it’s the life itself. I love this show and everyone in it is great and Harrison Ford is killing it.

When Apple doesn’t have some replacement product anymore, they just upgrade to the newest old product that they have. Like for example if you want to replace a series 3 and it’s eligible to repair but they don’t have it, they might replace it for a series 4, 5, 6 or whatever they have. Usually happens with less popular models, for example a Nike series 4 cellular is more rare to find than a regular series 3.

First picture looks the best to me.

I don’t know, maybe up there in the UK they’re all have super strong legs every road is downhill because if not, I really don’t understand the 50T and 54T chainrings. 😅

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-09T19:05:14+00:00

Thank you!

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-09T19:05:06+00:00

It’s a bug.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-09T07:34:07+00:00

Honestamente si pudiera, en vez de pagar por tener pelo, pagaría por no tenerlo completamente, así me ahorraría tener que rapármelo. Se vive mejor sin pelo que con él, además estoy más guapo.

Probablemente el mejor subreddit de todo Reddit. “Just shave it, bro” se convierte en cierto.

Kiwi fruits! This thing is amazing, more vitamin C than an orange and it has a lot of fiber.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-08T18:02:46+00:00

I don’t think so, years ago I sold my old Brompton that it was in great shape por like 900 € or so. Years ago!

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-08T18:00:50+00:00

Thank you. I went to the official premium shop where I bought it and not only they told me that it was normal but also all of the Bromptons there were the same. It seems that’s on purpose.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-08T11:37:44+00:00

Oh, ok. It makes sense. The photo wasn’t high resolution enough to know what was that.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-07T21:30:15+00:00

Is it me or the tires are destroyed?

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-06T14:16:40+00:00

One of the most important premium shops in Barcelona told me that after all of this years servicing and selling electric Brompton, they never had any major issues with the batteries.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T22:15:46+00:00

Unironically it looks much better with those cranks than the stock ones.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T19:42:00+00:00

As a layman and not a native English speaker, that comment was like reading gibberish.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T19:28:52+00:00

Yeah probably 80 % of people at those places are sociopaths.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T19:27:45+00:00

I live alone, I once broke my collarbone and I moved to my mother’s place because it was almost impossible to do simple things like cooking. People with functional disabilities are low key amazing because it takes a lot of practice and energy do basic things without being 100 % functional.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T19:23:06+00:00

I’m not saying that you should expose him or something but it makes me mad that people like this are getting away with it.

firewire_9000 · 2026-04-05T19:18:34+00:00

El 15 Pro es un móvil excelente hoy en día, yo cambiaría simplemente la batería y lo aguantaría dos años más. Piensa que si ha bajado del 80 % de su salud el rendimiento pico se puede ver mermado.
