soso, while I like see no cables, I still think to have them outside is a more straightforward affair (easier repair, no holes/water in frame). One would have to see how Flamingo cables behave within/after the fold. From the pics you posted I suspect all those front cables will loop out in a catchy way, I cant see how they can end neatly near the bike.
A pic somebody?

"resent"? No, I am not into all this ranting about brompton copyright or clones, also I stay clueless how people engage in dissing brompton factory for not doing thisīn that. Copying (when legal) is a form of compliment, no? Did you know I own a Merc (lays slaughtered under my bed the poor thing)?

Perhaps my last post sounds as if I am over defensive to brommi critics? In another post you stated that brommi is a "second look bike" which virtues only become notable after time. Well, for me it was "love at first sight". I was sure to make mine even before riding, but you are right - the longer and better I know the bike the more I have to admire its inventor. That in parts came with trying to modify "everything" and see how difficult that was because every inch is already so well in harmony. (note that the urge to modify in my case rose more from that week female attitude to alter the beloved than from discontentment)
