Sure Brompton has the most experience with these kind of bikes, but a steel frame on a bike that is supposed to be carried around? If I would spend that amount of money I would probably go for https://www.r-m.de/de/bikes/birdy/ with additional benefit that it is a German manufacturer ;-)

Brompton have both steel and titanium frame bikes, depending on your budget.

Birdie, Birdie Touring, Birdie Rohloff, ab 12.9kg, 12kg, 13.1kg, respectively. Heaviest Brompton: 11.5kg.

So much for German engineering in this case ;-)
