This, FML.
Only ever once worked in a shop that had brompton dealer status (was quite a large independent that prob sold about 5 a week) and even getting parts then was like having to use smoke signals to communicate with them. Now being a smaller shop, getting the 'brompton' parts means using retail outlets, ordering from mates at shops with dealer access doesn't really help).

Just received a 'brompton rear bush removal kit'.
Its a low quality drill bit to basically mawl the old bush to death, then a replacement bush and axle. Pretty crap for £25! Was expecting an actual tool lol. In the mean time had already removed a few brompton's worth with a normal blind bearing puller, for some reason I thought brompton made some kind of special tool. Nope just a basic drill bit. FML
