Brompton Folding Bike Travel Suitcase

Thanks MAK... I bought this case several years ago when I found out Brompton would not be coming out with their own case. I've actually posted my Brompton packed in it several times for others who've asked to see what I do. It's a decent case... still wish Brompton came out with their own solution.

i'm surprised someone hasn't already produced a sub 2kg after-market custom ultra-light vacuum-formed hyper-ethafoam™© molded case with 3D printed nano-fiber telescopic handle and cnc machined titanium trolley wheel assembly. (wait for it...)

Brompton Folding Bike Travel Suitcase

NYCEWheels is incorrectly calling these Brompton Case for Travel,
making people think it's made by Brompton. It's made by a luggage
company called B&W. Not sure if they targeted the Brompton market
on purpose or it just so happens the dimensions work out for B owners.

Amazon.com : B&W Folding Bike Box Clapton Box fits Brompton bikes : Bike Cargo Boxes : Sports & Outdoors

Here is my own semi hard sided suitcase/luggage for my B:

the logo suggests they made the soft case Brompton B-Bag|foldable Travel Case padding and stiffening can be added..

On close-up the case looks like being in a pretty pristine shape. Was it actually ever used for carrying a bike??
