Ambrose Nankivell said:It's relatively easy to strap a Brompton onto a pannier rack anyway,
though.
True, but by the time you've faffed about doing so and checked and
double checked it's all secure the 8 Freight will have had several
minutes head start. And it'll much more easily accept the luggage at
the other end too, with no wondering how floppy large holdalls would
best be kept out of the wheels etc.
It's the ease of loading and unloading that makes it the #1 bike for the
supermarket run, even though the 'bent has quite enough baggage capacity
for the job and can cover the actual roads bit quicker.
