    • I can see so many places to still lose weight on this build, but it’s just a fun project for the guy.
  • Which chain tensioner are you using on this? I'm doing a fixed conversion and would like to use anything other than a standard Brompton one.

  • Fixed gear Brompton? Unless your using two brakes to slow, any pressure on the chain will just pull the tensioner out and therefore not slow you, will be a right old mess. Unless you add a lock to the rear end and don’t fold it, not going to be suitable!
