 Single speed bicycles - Bromptonaut
As humph says, weight saving. Brompton sell a single speed folder, nearly a kilo lighter than the 6 speed version but distinctly lacking in flexibility even in London. Even the two speed with its lightweight derailleur wouldn't suit me; I prefer to keep an even cadence.

Twenty + speeds on an MTB is far too many, 12 well spaced should be enough, but TBH single speeders and fixdies (of which there are a lot in London) are esoteric niche kit.
