Brompton owners

I went for the Ali Express rack and 4 wheels. £35 in total and due to be delivered sometime towards the end of the month.

Looking for a used SP Dynamo, hub or wheel, silver wheel or black / silver hub,

For my dads bike so doesn’t need to be perfect

Made the top part for my modified stem.

Made another and have a modded stem to go with it if anyone’s interested.

31.8mm bars, similar reach to an s stem (totally guess-timated) and adjustable height.

Naughty naughty naughty.

Let me know price?

Hey I'm going the other way. I've got a mid rise Kuosac bar, want to swap?

Any recommendations for neat battery/USB lights that don't interfere with the fold? To be seen rather than see by.

A quick search only brought up dynamo chat.

Any cateye that doesnt have a permanent band really, we like the old volt800 ; I have brackets for these in transit - https://www.thebromptonman.com/accessories--small-parts.html
For the rear, I like the X-lite 100 on the saddle, its not so low down!

I have a Lezyne Zecto that attaches to the stem rather than the bars

That looks neat. I've realised I should probably hold off getting lights until this rack turns up and I decide where I'm mounting them.

If I’m 6’ and don’t want arse crack on show/ can wear regular clothes when cycling, will I be able to get away with that with the ‘S’ bar?

Yes. 6’0 here and ride s types

Grand, cheers

6' 5" and wishing I'd gone for an S not an M

6'2.
S is fine and lovely. I much prefer this set up to the old M I had. If you prefer a 'roadie' position then yes, then yes, you will prefer the flat bar option.

Found a 2nd hand Dynamo wheel and got an IQ-XS …

Should I be using a special mount … this light defo hits the luggage block.

Adding a spacer would make the brake bolt too short …

you need a brompton specific mount

doh. you are font of knowledge.

thanks!

Not only good for Bromptons.

Any bikes with cantis, Vs or mini Vs would benefit from using one!

Brompton stock shifters and levers. Anyone got experience of using these

So I can use Paul canti levers
