They do make more affordable bikes with the A-line and C-line. This one is the highest end folding bicycle that they make, but I still agree with the sentiment: Tons of bike companies are charging really high prices that seem too high

I checked my local dealer: A line starts at $1900 (Canadian) and $2700 for the C-line. That prices them way out of most people’s budgets who are looking for a commuter bike.
They aren’t competing with Cervelo, they are competing with brands like Tern, Dahon, or even Decathlon, so they are priced at least $1000 too high. I’m suggesting they have an actual affordable model.

No doubt, but the majority if bikes you’ll see regular people riding are not high-end. I’ve met one cyclist in my life with a titanium bike, so why is Brompton throwing away resources even developing and manufacturing this thing?? How many do they possibly expect to sell, and does it help lift them out of near bankrupsy?
Well, if they do go bankrupt, maybe we’ll get affordable trifolds that are good quality. I’ve been considering a brompnot but IDK if I’d trust a bike off Alibaba
Priority also sells cheap folders, kinda looking at the belt bike but I heard the hub sucks
