I've been looking at other luggage options for the Brompton front carrier.
Apparently there is a chap in Germany who makes Brompton Klick-Fix Adaptors
I've just emailed him to see if he still makes them and would be willing to sell me one. If anyone other Bromptonians on here are interested we could do a group buy and save on postage.
I'll let you know when I hear back from him.
forgot to update about this, I got a reply back from the guy in Germany but he wanted 50 euros for the adaptor! bit steep I think.
I think I may just get a porteur rack for the surly and leave it on there permanenttly as that's my shopping-carry heavy shit around bike anyway.
On a related but slightly different note I decided on using an Ortlieb Ultimate 5 bar bag with a rixen kaul seatpost adaptor to make a rather roomy rear bag that doesn't interfere at all the the fold, and holds a decent amount too. Quite pleased with it. Also negates the 'sail' effect front bags get in a headwind. Thinking about it you could probably mount it on the front as well, the adaptor is plenty wide enough for it.
I shopped around a bit for the bag, and the adaptor was £15 from Tredz
