Contis come up a bit wider, they are a bit smoother in tread and have more grip. I simply find them to be a higher quality of tyre also.

For total comfort; telescopic and fit a suspension seatpost or a sprung saddle?

Bars / grips make a huge difference;

I fit wider bars and ergo grips to pretty much 8/10 builds

Thanks again for your feedback man, appreciate it! 👍

Would like a new S2L, however no stock availabe anywhere. Plenty of new electric Bromptons available, why is this?

Higher overall cost plus possibly the margin on the ebike stuff is pretty good so producing/selling them is more lucrative than standard bikes?

Batteries have a shelf life so get them out the door as a priority?

@Rhobbs (or anyone else) have any newish front wheels for sale atm? Mine needs replacing. Thanks!

not looking at the right places!

I have a huge list; brompton@sjscycles.com

I just sold a few brand new ones! should have more in a week or so if you can wait? or can build one with a nicer hub and or rim sooner

That would be great, thanks! I'll PM you.

Today, started a new project, first step was to cut off the pump mount, dr mount and cable guides

So I managed to lose my Brompton (I folded it up as I got into a taxi and forgot to put it in the boot... beer may have been involved). Bit gutted as it was only just over a year or so old :'(

Anyway, I've just looked to get a new one to replace it and it seems they are still in very short supply. Is there anyone taking custom orders at the moment? It seems 2-speed bikes don't feature much in off-the-shelf/in stock bikes!

Contact Ryan at brompton@sjscycles.com, he will hook you up!

I have a M2L, which I might be parting with soon.

Cool, will take a look. Ta!

How much is an S2L worth in the current climate? All fresh hinges, all fresh cables.

I also have a brand new black edition BWR wheel if that interests anyone?

I hope that's not an orange 2020 model S2L found abandoned in SE London lol

No S2L unfortunately!

Can change any s type to 2 speed...

What's the damage?

I think a touch over 1k

Anyone know where I can buy a titanium brompton telescopic seatpost?

Can't find one anywhere

Half nice... like the cable routing, good move, those tyres?!

An original or aftermarket?

@user91463
Either would be amazing!
I have searched for hours online but couldn't find one.

Anyone have any experienced in servcing Brompton wheels? The bear on the front wheel is like a grinding rough paste, as well as the rear hub isn't too smooth either.

Spoke to a mechanic at Brompton junction workshop and said it is better to just replace the wheel than servicing them.
