Yet brompton still holds its mystique. The appeal is because it's made in england, and because it is expensive.
A lower price curve sL would reach a wider market..
I think companies are letting down consumers by not copying the Brompton fold. It's the best, but there's more to be done in terms of the implementation and that's where I'd like to see competition in the folding bike industry: refining the details are aspects pertaining to ride quality (which Brompton aren't concerned about since they have no direct competition).
