    Did the rear wheel go?

    Not if you're savvy with your purchasing.

    Personal choice and minimal maintenance, I recall. I wasn't too fussed with going hydro and potential air leaks when folded.
    The Spyres do a cracking job anyway.
    Plus I originally wanted to keep some recognisable Brompton parts.

    Thanks!
    Good spot on the red dot.
    Yes this bike passed through his fair hands and earned the Kinetics medallion!
    Unfortunately it's nowhere near the 9.5kg of the CHPT3.
    I'll console myself with the T Line and the ongoing Nickel Ti Superlight build.

    Interesting they've painted the Ti parts rather than leaving au naturel. Is that going to wear off as badly as the black ones?
    At least it'll be less noticeable.

    Nice!
    Been away from the forum for a couple of months.
    All black rims certainly add that something...

    Love the SMC Plume wheels.
    Where did you get them from?

    Yep, pretty much. They've put all their eggs in the Covenant Garden basket.

    All of the above!
    Luckily there's a dedicated band of hackers to make these work better.
