Electric Brompton.. Very Faaaasst

Posted on
  • I have here a 2001 Brompton with a 3 Speed SA hub.

    It has a Sparticle Extreme kit on it- front drive hub with a 48V 18Ah Lifepo4 battery. Comes with everything: Bike, Bag, Battery and Charger. It's just had a new rear wheel and serviced electric hub.

    It'll do about 23mph on the flat without pedal assistance, with silly amounts of torque for acceleration and rapid hill dispatching. This makes it a commuting weapon! Naturally because of the specs it lays slightly out of UK regs and hence I can only recommend this for off road use, sir.

    £800, E10 or SE1.

  • If this still available would you consider selling just the electrical kit?

  • Emphasis that this is not UK road legal, a non-pedal assist electric bike with this speed is basically a death risk (for you or someone else).

    The advert fully qualifies this as:

    But having preceded it with:

    Well I don't think you're doing that off road.

    Strong advisories to be cautious about purchasing, this is not UK legal.

  • good catch

  • Long shot but is this available?
