MISTERY CUSTOMER

September 11, 2017

He didn't want to be photographed and didn't want us to share his name, but thought that this black M3L Brompton deserved a post on the blog with her new best friend. … [Read more...] about MISTERY CUSTOMER

ON THE BENCH – RICARDO

June 13, 2017

 "This is my bicycle for riding in the city. The others are picnic bikes. I probably shouldn't be saying this, but every now and then, if it's raining, I call a Cabify. Today I didn't buy a travelcard or the Z3 round trip and only paid an extra of a bit more than two euros for a comfortable ride to Matosinhos. This time servicing my Brompton was really cheap, only cost … [Read more...] about ON THE BENCH – RICARDO

A BROMPTON WEEK – MIGUEL

April 21, 2017

It’s so small, I can store it in my bedroom! Otherwise I would have to keep it in our living room. Not quite sure the other guys would enjoy!” This was Miguel’s first comment after one or two days riding a demo bike for our “A Brompton Week” experience. Miguel is a 24 years old from Coimbra, that arrived in Porto few years ago to study Science. Actually he’s living in … [Read more...] about A BROMPTON WEEK – MIGUEL

A BROMPTON WEEK – PEDRO

April 9, 2017

  You know, I work in finance and this is still a very conservative world. They just weren’t expecting me carrying a bicycle to the meeting room. This episode, told with a big laugh at lunch, was a cheerful introduction to a conversation we had few days later at the Lexo Coworking, a cosy townhouse in Matosinhos where his office is located. We talked mostly of things not … [Read more...] about A BROMPTON WEEK – PEDRO

A BROMPTON WEEK – INÊS

March 30, 2017

One day I met my neighbour downstairs. Stepped in the elevator and, well, you know, he was very surprised to see the before and the five minutes after, when he found the bike folded at my doorstep. Inês was the third to complete our Brompton Week. This week was not just her first time riding a Brompton, but also the first time she hopped on a bike of any kind in Porto.If … [Read more...] about A BROMPTON WEEK – INÊS

A BROMPTON WEEK – MIKE

March 23, 2017

Mike started his “Brompton Week” roughly at the same time as Rita.Mike is more than an outdoor enthusiast that loves the good things in life. Choosing the wise words of our friend Inês, who will be featured in the next Brompton post, Mike is an “epicurist”, someone that is definitely not running after pleasures all the time, but someone searching for a certain equilibrium … [Read more...] about A BROMPTON WEEK – MIKE

A BROMPTON WEEK – RITA

March 19, 2017

“My bike is bumping everywhere! I need the Brompton back!”This was Rita’s reaction when climbing with her vintage bike to the apartment on the third floor of a old building in Central Porto. This happened after spending one week with one of our demo Brompton.This Brompton Week is an experience we are making with some of our customers. They are spending a few days with … [Read more...] about A BROMPTON WEEK – RITA
