Owners' pics from Brompton Society:
Pics tell you that something is broken, They do not deliver the context how and why and neither how the issue was handled. So what are you trying to prove? That Bromptons do fail, too? That's pretty obvious. If you want a product with more than 1/2 a million samples in use out there that has not had any issues: good luck. I think I know at least two if not all three of the pics you showed and if I remember correctly there is a story around and behind it that you missed to tell.
