  • I still have the older brake pads on my second hand brompton I got over two years ago.
    It's got a sturmey 5 speed hub so pre-2000?
    I haven't done much as I got it for Uni, I did have to buy the rear frame clip assembly to keep it from folding when carrying it.
    It definitely needs some upgrades but parts are expensive and I kinda like it original however I'm pretty I need to get the hub serviced, I'm pretty sure it's never had its hub serviced in 16+ years and the rims are pretty worn. It's going to be expensive :(

  • It's going to be expensive :(

    It is, but still cheaper than a new Brompton.

    Most expensive service I've perform on a Brompton is a shy over £500, another option you have is to convert it into a singlespeed, which will be cheaper and lighter.
