Brompton is yet to respond to road.cc’s request for comment, though we have been told that the company has now provided the necessary information requested by National Highways, addressing the traffic body’s objections. We have been very impressed and happy with the Kentfield and it offers kent bayside cruiser that easy Sunday coffee stop bike ride on an awesome looking ride. I gauge practicality from a standpoint that when I take it out the box, how much more work do I need to do, and how many things do I need to change? The only addition was some plug-on universal mudguards that I attached.
Having made such provision (by means of an agreement to use existing car parks), it is now National Highways who are calling for a traffic assessment, given the number of people who may now choose to drive instead of public transport/active travel. Chief among National Highways’ concerns is the requirement for a more detailed traffic and transport assessment to be carried out, especially in relation to Brompton’s desire to not include any car parking spaces at its site. As part of any repair or service kent electric bike we check the bike to assess if any additional repairs are required. If we recommend additional work, we will provide you with a no obligation cost estimate and ask if you want to proceed or not. The only way to get people to use bikes as a commuting vehicle or walking is by making it more convenient to use a bike, not the making of 0 parking spaces. There is always a situation where a car is needed; if you are disabled, transport big and bulky items, long distances to commute, that kind of stuff.
I feel this bike is the type of bike you get as an introduction into cycling, or to supplement your bike collection for that one you just pick up and go without too much thought for the short coffee rides. We have had one piece of maintenance in the two years, which was a faulty disc pad, which was our fault for incorrect storage over a long period. You should have your bike serviced regularly if you ride regularly. We aim to get fast fix jobs i.e. smaller repairs completed and straight back out where-ever possible. Yes but please check directly with your local store for availability.

We traditionally ride road and gravel bikes and with that comes a certain type of saddle, which if you get it right is absolutely fine. However, when you are presented with the La-z-Boy style saddle that comes as standard on the Kentfield you are spoilt with how comfortable a large padded seat can be. Here at Halfords we take pride in the bikes we design, build and sell and are happy that all of our
bikes are of the highest qualty. That’s why we offer a Limited Lifetime Guarantee on the frame and
rigid forks of all Halfords and Halfords exclusive brand’s for the original owner. On top of this, we also cover all other components on the bike for 1 year unless the manufacturer
states otherwise.
If I were advising them, I’d be looking to give them the evidence to allay concerns about the network, while highlighting a clear narrative about any car-centric biases within the planning system. It was Kent County Council’s highways department that said they must make provision for people who have no choice but to drive. Ive stayed in that hotel and while its odd, you definitely wont want to leave on foot. On game days though they provide shuttles etc. so its no different to a park and ride, only you can sleep and eat there too. “There has been a global realisation post-pandemic that we need to change how we live in our cities, to design them around the people that live in them, not the automobile. Brompton has a large part to play in supporting that transition, but we need to have more space to innovate and create the products of the future.
