Re: Triple Deore mech on double chainset?
Is it road compact? I have a 44/28 Spa Cycles super-compact chainset and a Deore LX triple mech. Upshifting was very difficult and most times the chain would fall off. LBS part-exchanged for a 105 double front mech and kept the same Deore LX shifters.

Re: Folding bikes - good Brompton alternatives?
Add Moulton to the list of separable small-wheelers. Another British manufacturer and has a very Charles & Ray Eames looking frame.
Used Bromptons can be had from £ 500 onwards dependant on age and number of gears. The B75 at £ 745 is an entry-level model with pre-2012 components. It has 3 gears, no mudguards and non-folding pedals. Better By Bike in Bristol offers folding bikes for local residents to try out. My friend who borrowed one said it's a Dahon.
Used Birdys can also be had for less than half-price. My cycle instructor has one as her only bike and she leads group rides on it. I have ridden it briefly during my lesson.

Re: GPX/TCX conversion to Garmin FIT
Can you try recalculating the distance on the source file?
http://tcxtools.com/tcx/distance/
https://gotoes.org/strava/Combine_GPX_TCX_FIT_Files.php I used this a lot to combine several FIT files but it only outputs GPX/TCX. You can upload a single GPX and use it to recalculate distances
Try GPX Babel on the command line. https://www.gpsbabel.org/index.html
