  • Thinking about joining the Brompton club. Probably won’t ride more than a max of 8 miles one way. How many gears would people recommend and any where people could recommend I could test ride one in London?

  • Any Brompton dealer,

    All premier dealers have to have 4 demos.

    I vote 6, it’s the fastest, even if it is slightly heavier!

  • Around that there London you won’t need more than a 3sp. I live near Crystal Palace and I have an S2, tho I’m in line for one of Ryan’s 3sp conversion kits, whenever they show up. Mine currently has 13/16 sprockets, but I’m looking to go to 13/15/17 with a 50t crank cos I’m old and I spin a lot. You’d be welcome to give mine a spin if you need.
