7 Brompton Accessories | Brompton Folding Bike

[@ARlELATOM]

This is the best Brompton accessories video. Some really clever ideas. My only suggestion for better lights would be Bontrager RT lights. One on the seat post just below the seat, and the other right in the centre under the handlebars (The front light needs rotating inside it’s mount). The perfect Brompton lights setup.

@@EverydayCycling I was going to say the same thing....my saved video list for Brompton, is pretty much all your videos Victor. I'm seriously considering ac-line black edition and your videos are helping to me see how handlebar choices and after sales upgrades can happen. I do have to say that the Brompton website bike configurator in the UK is pretty poor and I'll be going to a physical store instead and I now feel better prepared to ask the right questions! Thank you!

[@jonathanselzer706]

Victor I was debating a kickstand as well, to get more use out of rack. I found the Minoura SLMV-1 Mini-Velo Stand on the internet. Cost about 65 Us Dollars. I just installed it. Very stable did not have the issues you found. Weighs 155gm. I did find it snapping in the up position, and hitting the rim of the back wheel. To stop that I wrapped velcro around the top of the kick stand, and secured with black electrical tape so it does not slide down. Could also use a dot of Crazy Glue, but I wanted to be able to get it off if I did not like it. Velcro tape stops the inward travel of Kickstand. Thanks for your work on behalf of us all. You made an engineer out of me!

So nice of you, thanks!

[@Inkling777]

I'll add two upgrades I find handy. 1. The Brompton's handlebars don't leave much room to mount gear such as a GPS. Search ebay for a "bike handbar extender." That'll let you add a 20 cm bar for accessories. 2. An Ibera PakRac Mini Commuter rack I had on a mountain bike fits the seat post on a Brompton perfectly. You can use it on its own or in addition to the lower-down Brompton rack. As a plus it can be used with Ibera's extensive line of quick-release bike bags at prices that are typically cheaper than Brompton-only ones.

[@b.griffin317]

Wouldn't a seat-post rack interfere with folding (or at least making it compact when folded)?

[@KrzysztofJurek]

this is so useful to see how the rear rack fits on the electric model. I've been considering this upgrade for a while but wasn't sure how/if the rack could fit the electric model. Thanks for the video

[@roelkomduur8073]

As a bike pro ( i'm Dutch) and owner of one, i would strongly advice to use some protective tape like Lizard skins frame protector, and a dynamo hub like a SON is also a great upgrade...

[@b.griffin317]

Hi. Please say more about the protective tape idea. Edit: I looked that up and it appears to be handlebar grip tape. The main objections I would have to that are: 1. Grip tape has a reputation of collecting moisture under it and rusting out metal parts. 2. It covers up the pretty paint job if you value the color of your Brompton (would be OK to cover some areas of high wear, but not most of the frame).

Well you dont need to worry if it rains, just fold your cycle and catch a taxi or get on a bus that is the magic of the Bromford, it folds so compactly. Another thing i love about the brompton you never need to lock it up outside when you can fold it and bring it inside with you marvelous. And the cycle looks so trendy, It my be a little bit expensive but the expense is worth every penny you will soon see that for yourself when you purchase one.

I love the drone shot at the beginning of the video, it’s very cinematic. I also learn that you can’t push the bike with weight on when it’s folded. Would you recommend people to get a R model instead of a L if they haven’t already bought a bike yet? Great video Victor!

[@EverydayCycling]

Thank you, Paul! I prefer the looks of the L version, but for someone who will often push the bike when folded, grocery shopping for example, the rear rack is a MUST. Now, not everybody likes to push the bike. Some prefer putting it inside of the shopping cart, so it's really up to how one uses it.

[@lalexguerra]

Victor is very creative. He is doing great videos. I guess he is studying cinema instead of engineering. :))))

[@BrookValentine]

I was able to order my electric with a rack so the store installed it for me before I picked it up. Got the larger front bag, but the battery still eats space up inside it, so I strap a larger box to the rear rack when delivering baked goods for my wife! Rear light is relocated to the rear of the rack too, nicely done by the factory.

@@EverydayCycling I've been a little annoyed that the rear rack doesn't come standard, as it seems the versatility of the bike should be paired with the ability to carry more--at least strap a backpack or duffle down.

[@duncanhamilton5841]

@@RidingBikesinSanDiego racks aren't for everyone though. I actually took it off my S6 as the constant rattling and meh aesthetics wasn't worth the occasional utility of putting things on the rack. However, I've now got an electric as well, and I can see that the limited capacity of the City bag along with the motor means I'll probably put stuff on a rack far more often... so old S6 rack probably going to go on the electric soon

[@RidingBikesinSanDiego]

@@duncanhamilton5841 I see what you mean about the rack. The Ride On Cycling channel just had a video of 7 upgrades,and one was an interesting hook on the back of the saddle that might cover what I need, when I get there.

[@duncanhamilton5841]

@@RidingBikesinSanDiego yeah, that clip she has this is interesting, but for my money that and the rack are imperfect answers to the fact Brompton could had put a bit more thought into the City bag design; the battery takes up so much space.

Today I used my wheel extender and really struggled to keep my bike from tipping over. Thanks to your detailed videos, I realised I'd fitted the extender on the left. But, I think I need a rear rack to achieve good stability when rolling my bike. It would also give better ground clearance thus preventing further damage to my fender.

[@buixote]

If possible, you always want your kickstand closer to your payload... that's why on standard bikes, the one that fits on the rear triangle is best. I haven't been paying attention... Brompton has not yet made the "easy wheel" standard? Shame! For me, I think that little plastic gizmo that keeps the clamps aligned/pushed out might even be the *top of this list* of upgrades. Thanks for your great videos!

[@EverydayCycling]

The original wheel that comes stock these days is much better than a few years ago, so if I didn't have EZ wheels laying around, I probably wouldn't have replaced those. But there's still some noticeable advantage because of the bearings on the EZ wheels versus bushings on the original. The springs are a neat upgrade!

The Rear Rack is such a great addition to an Electric Brompton I am amazed it's not the standard configuration. Adds back more than the pinched luggage space lost to the battery and assists rolling when folded. Love my X roller bar, so easy to deploy with the right toe. Considering OMNI wheels, 2 or 4 though? Thanks for your interest, informative vids. Take care

[@EverydayCycling]

Two is enough. Four would be quite noisy and installing them on the frame would cause heel strike.

Really helpful. Thank you. The main thing for me has been wider handlebars. I swapped mine to Joseph Kuosac ones which sweep in slightly but the grips are in line with my shoulders. The normal bars are 152 cm across. The JK bars are 160, but I cut mine to 158 cm. the bike folds fine. Thanks again

[@itsfahys]

Thanks for the Excellent upgrade options. I dont currently own a Brompton but im torn between a Brompton B75 entry model in Ireland New at €900 Euro or a used Dahon EEZZ D3 for €500 used in really good condition. The extremely Light weight Dahon comes in at 9.7kg and the Brompton B75 at 11.6KG One concern id have with the brompton is that accessories seem really expensive compared to other brands. Each has their pros and cons.

You don't have to use the original accessories, but may buy many special items from China. I have bought carbon clamps to hold my, original titanium struts on my Lightweight, as the original metal ones actually weighs a lot!

This is a smaller, more convenient mirror for the Brompton: CatEye BM-45 Bar End Bike Mirror (£12.99) - fitting is the same as the one shown in this video. I been using it on my Brompton for 3 years. It has a very stiff ball-joint between the mount and the mirror to allow for precise positioning. If you knock it in transit it will move, if you wack it really hard (against a doorway for instance, it will 'pop off' and it's an effort to 'pop it' back on). There's no distortion, vibration or magnification. It sticks out about 2", doesn't effect "the fold" (I'm from the UK, we drive on the left, so it's on the right - non-floor-side when folded) Get one, it will make your cycling safer... at a glance, it'll let you see if it's a truck, bus, or car that's coming up behind you and trying to squash to into the gutter...

[@EverydayCycling]

Thanks for sharing! The main problem I see is that I use the mirror on the other side, i.e. bar end is 1 inch from the ground... =/ would it work?

[@Bokooda]

@@EverydayCycling I just checked, and it may not... (I've just corrected my comment) Without actually fitting it to 'your' side I couldn't say for sure, but it's movable by hand, you may be able to rotate (close it) it out of the way so it doesn't strike the ground...

Hi Victor, it’s Will from Chicago. I am interested in purchasing several upgrades for my Brompton such as the hinge clamps, seat post clamp, ez wheels, handlebar catch and several others. There are many options available for these but I am struggling with the color choices. I am totally colorblind and unable to distinguish colors from each other. My bike is a flame lacquer black edition. Because it is a black edition, my initial thought was to purchase all black upgrade components, but after considering this, I am wondering if it’s too much black. I’m thinking all the black might be boring. Most of the components are available in silver, gold, titanium color, and of course black. I am wondering which color you think would coordinate best with flame lacquer black edition. I realize this is personal taste, but for me everything is shades of gray. Hopefully you are familiar with the flame lacquer color and can offer some advice. If black really is the best, then it will help me to know. I appreciate you help and look forward to your response.

I can tell you that I'm 5'10" or 175cm tall, and I use the standard seat pole at full height. But... I remove the seat and turn the mounting bracket upside down, making the seat "overslung" not underslung as it were, and that gives me an extra inch and a bit height, perfect for me and leg extension without locking my knees on the down stroke. Tweaking the fore-aft angle of the seat helps too, so for a while carry the Allen key for the seat so you can adjust it on your first rides. If you're a 6 foot plus person, you can order the bike with the extra high or extended seat pole.

I'm 6'0 on the Brompton electric, and I manage to get full leg extension.

@@napilopez cool. Thank you

I’m 6’3 (~36 inch inseam) so I have the telescopic seat post. Would recommend a test ride before you buy.

Did you put the rack and wheels off your original bike because you're leaving that new rack with the wide wheel set on your old bike?

[@EverydayCycling]

You mean the GOrack? I'll keep it on the standard Brompton, yes.

Could you add links to the optional items sellers or makers?
