There was a recall on certain age models to have the BB replaced a couple of years back, how old is yours?

And yeah, I dunno why Brompton use such rubbish units. UN-55’s retail at about £20, it’s not exactly going to break the bank.

Yep, my spindle was one of the ones that snapped. Luckily I was freewheeling at 5mph. I shudder to think what could have happened if it gave way earlier on in my commute.

Once the replacement is starting to wear I'll also make the switch to a UN-55.
