So, I bought a clip for the rear triangle of my ancient Brompton so it doesn't fold under when lifting the bike. Got home, cant fit it as it requires a 6mm quick release. My Brompton has a thicker QR. My question is do I have to buy a Brompton one (they are a tad expensive) or can I just buy a cheap QR like this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAVERT-QR-QUICK-RELEASE-SEATPOST-CLAMP-6MM-BOLT-FITTING-/331071269594?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item4d1562aada so I can fit this clip.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
