Brompton owners

Low is taller and more reach then mid, high is same as mid but has 57mm below joint

On it.

Cheers +sbbohr, never really worked on high ones, good to know.

Thanks, James

Gave this some overdue attention yesterday. It doesn't help that I'm using the remote shock lever complete with a Ti cable retaining nut to clamp the cable as it exits the derailleur - makes it trickier to work with with just your two hands, but not impossible.

I replaced the inner cable - wasn't necessary but due a service soon, took about the derailleur/dog leg assembly and my God was it filthy - in a fairly short space of time with a fair few poor weather rides and it was caked in grime. This wasn't the fix/cause though but clearly wasn't helping.

Iturns out one of my pulley/tensioner wheels is sitting on quite an eroded arm, and so wasn't moving freely enough to jump into the big cog. Given the recent clean, I clearly didn't re-lube it enough, but with some thicker lube it's now moving well and shifting.

Time to chuck out this chain tensioner though. I've used the same one for like 8+ years.

Oh okay, was told different, thanks for the info 👍🏻

@coventry_eagle apologies on that!

At £30.00 that looks like damn good vfm.

This is so Bristol

anyone got a spare pair of conti contact urban they would like to sell me?

edit or know of a good deal somewhere for 2 tyres + tubes. these are sadly sold out.

I'm looking for a P or S stem that I can modify with bottle cage bosses for @Dammit, anyone got anything they are looking to sell? @sbbohr??

I've got one spare, think its S

edit: it's red if that matters

Colour doesn't really matter as it'll get powdercoated.

I'll pm you. Cheers.

Brompton Boost not the best apparently!

Ouch! Also clocked these are the same guys who bought us the lavita gravel bike…

Can’t even cable it properly..

I thought the endless banging on about motorsport was familiar.

I think the cachet regarding Brompton development is legit though.

Yes

christ - quite a scathing review...

csb but I grew up in sunningdale. didn't realise my LBS had become a brompton super outlet + social media sensation

Custom Build came back for some
Tweaks and a flat bar/recable.

Right? I found this out recently, such a humble little shop but her channel is super popular. It iiiiis in their best interest to sell electric stock Brommers but yeah, that product is trash. Think they used to be in Chobham on the mini roundabout.

Is it my eyes or has the chainstay been cut away to clear the hub? Visible on the left at 2:40

Great colour combo! @sbbohr is that an H&H seat post? are those SC seat clamps reliable? can either the SC or DC saddle clamp be flipped -seatpost turned 180 degrees- to shorten reach? Apologies for the huge amount of questions
