What are the opinions of the #BikeTooter #brompton bubble on the Chinese Cranston? Looks familiar, no? 😄

@helenajambor Pues #brompton tendrá que innovar para mantenerse actualizado y no perder mercado. 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

@helenajambor Some people complain the chain comes off when folding it without adding tensioners… Which sounds pretty terrible if you fold it a lot. It’s probably not bad to own for a few years, but I’d just get the real thing. At least it is steel and not aluminum like some clones.

@helenajambor You can buy the cheaper copy from China and have it sent halfway round the world. But then you shouldn't be surprised if jobs disappear here.

@helenajambor Sorry, it wasn't meant to be a lecture. It's nothing new that good ideas are copied and others jump on a market trend. I'm just sorry about Brompton, where we've heard about a slump in profits.

@JanneB don't want to drag this on,but thank you very much for this explanation and reply

Did not know about Brompton having lower revenue, I see them expanding massively in my offline bubble! Shocking!
