Welcome to Brompton ownership, a black hole you pour money into. It's worse
than the racks-and-bags journey we go on for our Rivs!

Gosh darnit, this would fit and would be perfect for Sacramento...but not

I got loose at Aliexpress today & ordered a titanium seatpost (600mm) since
the one I have is pretty gouged in places. That & the little phone holder
that mounts on the stem bolt.
My lack of self control will probably have me returning for the titanium
rear rack too!

Eric, the sage green Brompton in the picture I included in my earlier post
above is equipped with the telescoping seat post. My PBH is 96cm. Both
bikes have the 'H" style handlebar.

I’m only 5’ 11” with an 86 cm PBH. I have one Brompton with a standard seat
post and one with the telescoping seat post. The standard post is about perfect
for me at full extension. I use maybe an extra inch on the telescoping post.
You’d need the telescoping post and likely the H bars as well.
Joe,
Thanks for those useful tidbits. Now it is even more interesting. This
type of project is right up my alley.

Anyone have a picture/experience of a Brompton set up for a taller (~6’3”)
rider? Asking for a friend.

Ash,
A Bosco can be done if you can make the reach and folded math work.
The clamp is 25.4 and the mast folds down so the reach-back juts away from
the bike. You'd have a bigger folded footprint but still crazy compact
relative to storing or transporting a full-size bike.
The ETT is about
Nice to see all those cute pictures!
Wondering if the Bosco bar would work for a Brompton.
Brompton is in my N+1 list, but Bosco is a must.

That is a Wald 582 folding metal basket, with a Trigo adapter plate
modified to fit it to the carrier block. It is not light, but nothing on
mine is...
Mine came as the "raw lacquer", but from the factory it is really a paint
color and not just raw metal with lacquer over. I am using metal

I figured it's worth a shot to ask, but it does seem like the hub market is
bone dry. I'm searching for some modern, 11 speed Ultegra hubs in good
condition (or new). Seems like my only other option is a seller out in
Germany on eBay.
The plan is to build these up with Open Pro rims for
The TT measurement from the Cyclefiend site does not match what a 59 should
be. I would need to see a real ST measurement to say for sure. Not a
measurement with teh saddle included.

Sorry for the confusion. I had thought the Nitto M12 rack sold but it
appears is still available for sale. Enclosed is an updated parts list with
revised pricing.
- Nitto Rear Rack (medium) New$165.00
- Nitto M12 Front Rack New $75.00
- Arkel Commuter Bag w/ laptop sleeve
Frame size should be easy to measure - center of crank to top of seat lug.
Based on "Crank bolt to top of saddle - 30"." and what appears to be 6-1/4"
[(36-1/8) - (29-7/8] from top of seat lug to top of saddle -> 30" - 6-1/4"
= 23-3/4" = 60.3 cm.
Or another estimate

Rick: which basket is that? Aliexpress & typing "brompton + titanium"
certainly brings up some lovely items too.
I'm thinking of doing a strip down to raw metal & lacquer over the winter
as I love that look.

Based on that TT measurement it looks like it probably is a 55.

This thread of missed emails is incredibly confusing.
