How is Brompton support at replying to inquiries?

I recently purchased an electric C-line from the Brompton website. I luckily choose to have the bike delivered at my local Brompton junction (which didn’t have any stock of this model). Today I went to pick it up, and upon inspection the front carrier block was cracked, the front fender along with the hook was broken, and they had scratched up the front fork. This kind of things happen, and I’m not too upset, however I had been hoping to have the bike for a trip this weekend. The guy at the shop said that he has both the front block and the fender assembly in stock, but he needs for authorisation from Brompton before he can replace them under warranty. We emailed support together. Do you think I can expect a reply soon, so maybe he can fix the bike before the weekend?

3rd party electric bags

Can anyone recommend an electric compatible bag from a third party? I’m looking for something like a big basket for groceries that maybe comes a bit cheaper than the Brompton one
Thanks!

I just pulled the trigger on my first Brompton. If all goes to plan it should be here next week. In the meanwhile I’d like to ask a couple of questions:
- is anyone planning to buy a new bike soon? I have a 150€ discount code I would be willing to share (it’s the referral code that grants me 20% off accessories if you use it)
- what is the best place to hide an AirTag on a new C line electric?
- anything special I should be on the lookout for? (Accessories/bags/upgrades/carrying solutions)

Thank you so much!!!

Hi,
Has anyone tried this bike? I’m on the lookout for a compact electric folder. I am considering a Brompton c line, however this one claims a nearly as good fold, with added disk brakes and a much smaller price. The only things that are holding me back are the lack of reviews and the front tire drive. Does anyone know much about this model or at least the brand? Is the front wheel drive a big deal?
