Cheers that makes sense re: bolt, tube looks about right dia. for a garmin elastic band

Two questions, anyone else had a saddle bag tear through the loops like this?
Chipped paint around the seat post sleeve, a mystery to me as the bike lives indoor. is that just a normal wear and tear thing on a brompton?

slightly off topic, is there anywhere in London i can donate random bike parts to for a good cause - i think there was charity that built up bikes?. All are in working order and things i've previously tried to sell, I don't want the admin of giving them away and coordinating pick up etc. a mix of brompton bits (seat post, hub, inners) and road (spares for brakes, cables etc.)

Just upgraded to conti urban contacts, what a difference they make compared to marathons. best upgrade i've made on the brompton

Cane Creek EE. thank you!

how does the fold work on these, I like the idea of stripping off for the summer but realised the front guard had the clip and without the rear one it won't roll folder. can live with out the roll but carrying it with the front wheel flapping is a pain

looking for a nicer looking and maybe lighter weight rim brake shoe / pad combo.

Thanks for that tip on the 5 speed , I’d assumed being a hub it would be more robust than throwing a derailleur on. Is the Alfine 8 reliable?

Brompton bike mech in central london, looking for ones recomended or to avoid. This is to replace a 3-spd hub with 5 and bottom bracket

Also looking for a tubolito review , if they are lighter and stronger why wouldn't you replace when your next puncture happens

Has anyone got experience of riding clipless on a Brompton? I've read a post about pedal asysmetry causing knee issues, is this a thing? Its for some touring rather than regular commuting

Brompton and a bike trailer, any experiences / recomendations / thoughts. n+1 is great but don't have the space for a cargo bike but often need to haul something a bit big / bulky.

Now with added pictures

It is and yes, you are right, madness.

For others there's an easy bulk convert option https://heictojpg.com/

Brompton tyres, i currenlty have marathon plus but in the market for something a bit faster rolling but still practical. Any reviews for the continentals, have them on my road and found them a good balance of speed and puncture resistance.

Also looking for recomendations for getting a tired frame resprayed in London / South East

Support for HEIC image format please, now that it's default on newer version of iOs

Still avaialble

Dropped to £35 with collection

From my second bike which now needs to go live in the loft to make way for n+1 (can't birng myself to sell the frame).

Shimano 105 5800 groupset (silver)

Front crankset (50-34)
RD (standard length)
Brifters 5800 STi (black)
Rim brakes
Rear casette R7000 11 speed (11-28t)
Rear cable is Ultegra 6800
Shimano cables for brakes

I think ~3k km on the Front, rear casette has had couple of replacements, brifters are also newer than main GS due to a theft, scuffs and scratches to most inline with the time and miles they've been on the bike. Available to collect from Bloomsbury - also happy to post with postage extra, not really interested in splitting this. Can add more pictures if there's interest. Will be cleaning as part of putting bike in storage.

Price £360

Down to £75 bump

@greytyke hape DM'd you

Still available

Cheers, condition doesn’t matter that much if it still is fully functional it’s for lugging shopping around

A bit out my budget, pricing as new to suit those who might actually need a bag for putting their game in. Guess the Labrador would run along beside
