Hmmm ... bot is censoring the word retar-ded (meaning slowed down... not mental ...)
my main goal is the same as yours, make it last.
the hardest part to keep these steel/chromoly frames sane is the inner tubes.
i have 20 years old brompton witch is badly corroded inside the frame tubes.
i tried many stuff to throw inside the frame to kill the rust but it keeps coming back.
so once in year i revamp the coating, protection inside and ouside the frames.
if the bike survive for more 10 years it will be amazing.
i have serius doubt how a brompton can survive in frozen shores like new york, where pll dump salt in streets...even cars gets better up in northeast usa.
