Was wondering whether brompton brakes - and other light and shit equipment - would hold up to the speeds that could be achieved with an extra 200 watt behind you.
On a UK legal EAPC, you don't have an extra 200W in the conventional sense. Shit brakes will be shit whatever, but normal bike equipment can withstand Wiggo's 450W even though 99% of users can't sustain over 250W :-)
Yeah true. Was wondering whether brompton brakes - and other light and shit equipment - would hold up to the speeds that could be achieved with an extra 200 watt behind you. But I suppose that's the same as wondering if they'd put up with a 'natural descender' on a steep descent.
