Fork: 311gr (-240gr)
Rear: 423gr (-350gr)

So total saving is 1710gr over full steel Brompton, or 1120gr over Ti Brompton.


UFB had cassette and forward/rear derailleurs. Now there are wider rear frame available (135mm spacing) OR custom narrow spacing wheelset so you can build a better replica of UFB (2x11 speed)
Nice bike. But it save less weight than I thought. I expected titanium frame can be saved more than 1kg but infact it saved 730gr ~ rear + Fork titanium as official Ti Brompton.
How about ride feeling on this bike?
