  • What's the anticipated lifespan of a chain on a brompton? I've just had mine serviced and chain replaced but I think it's only had 1,000km for some reason I'd expect more considering it's a hub gear so not being stretched like a "normal" deraileur would. I'm not good at cleaning the chain though and indulge in the occasional bit of gravel on it

  • Can't give approximates, but in my experience, around half of that of other bikes I do way more mileage on. The drivetrain being so close to the ground seems to attract the worst of muck and grime. That and the fact that it's a commuter, so more rain etc.
