I worked in the design team just after they did the nickel plated frames, so there were quite a few prototypes around.
At one point earlier in this thread there were rumours of 20" wheel Brompton prototypes being tried out. Did you come across anything like that?

No nothing, there was some stuff which was just starting out when I was there that hasn't made it out yet. Most projects have been released now, ebike was still not at finished production stage at that point. There was quite a lot of work around titanium manufacturing which feels like it probably isn't finished either.

I worked in the design team just after they did the nickel plated frames, so there were quite a few prototypes around. I think the production one was brushed then plated, while this wasn't. The factory used to run 4 days a week so I got to put it all together walking through the production line on a Friday afternoon.
