  • This is the standard bromton set up with everything you need for wheel and lights for £175 https://brilliantbikes.co.uk/-brompton-hub-dynamo-lighting/3244-brompton-sp-sv-8-hub-dynamo-kit.html

    SP hubs are generally seen as good value. Not user serviceable (but none are really) but I’ve not had any trouble. Often seem to get rebranded too so there’s a few variants all very similar.

    I wasn’t a huge fan of the standard bromton front light, but mainly based on looks than function so I used a supernova Pure3 as it was slightly smaller. But the rear light wasn’t as good in a bromton, so compromised there.

    Lots of suggestions for Dynamo stuff in this thread too: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/159454/?offset=4850#comment17386744

    Bromptons don’t need specific items but it’s worth paying attention to the hight if the front light so it doesn’t hit the bag. Some larger lights might be a close fit when loaded up fully.

  • That’s probably the entry price for a new wheel and lights I’m afraid, unless you look second hand but second hand Dynamo only bromton wheels may be harder to find as it seems most people choose which way they’d go and then stick with it (unlike full size wheels where there may be more swapping and changing)
