I bought the expensive, newer style Brompton set for £75 - includes clamps and bolts for the stem, seatpost clamp and rear triangle catch. All are much more ergonomic than older stock ones in my opinion.
A day after fitting, the Brompton fell out of my car boot onto the hinge. Bolt bent.
A week later the same thing happened, but it landed on the frame clamp hinge. Bolt bent. 😭😭😭
Edit: Actually £75 isn't bad for that set considering how much third-party ones cost. Thr price hurt more because of the damage.

Any recommendations for aftermarket hinge clamps? Cheap is better. My stem hinge bolt is bent so needs replacing and I might as well get rid of the bulky plastic one(s)
