Very impressive.
Imagine if the Brompton was an S6L instead of the two speed and Andrew Feather had a higher high and a lower low to work with.

So the S2L is probably the best choice that GCN chose to put up a show (rider certainly will also know what gear inches he can manage)

I noted the hill climb champion pedaling out of the saddle wasn't noticeably exercising the suspension. Wonder what that little red suspension block is made of - walnut?
