That's a big overstatement, IME. A Brompton rolls OK with the EZ wheels, but needs further modifications for anything other than smooth of surfaces like a supermarket floor. In the past, those modifications (skate wheels) would result in voiding the Brompton frame warranty. A BF tikit rolls much better. A STRIDA rolls even better than that.
