My partner cycled 3400 km through Japan on a Brompton last autumn (I can't ride a bike so I ran instead). It turned out to be a great choice of bike for travelling around slowly on.
We had a couple of issues finding replacement tyres, but only two days out of 80 where we had any issues - and both were avoidable/our fault.
Here's a short showing off the bike if anyone's interested. (one day we'll make a full length video!)

If I ever learn to ride a bike... I'm pretty sure it will be on a folding one.
