Romero Joins the Fold

More used to high end carbon fibre exotica, Romero put three folders through their paces - the iconic British Brompton, the avant garde Strida and a Swiss Bike LX folding MTB.

Unpredictably enough, John Bentley, Gadget show presenter, almost did a comedy faceplant testing the brakes on the univerally derided Strida.
