    The ones I had cut were 13 gauge. I could make it work but I run the risk of pulling the spoke through the flange

    Cheap Brompton Conversion Kit?

    They didn't offer one in black and I like the silver hub. I keep reading "TETS" on this thread. Who or What is "TETS" and how can I get a set of those Torque Washers? I got the Easy Wheel Extender off eBay.

    Forks Widened and Drops Dremeled Out. Waiting on Rim & Spokes So relieved that the hub freewheels in the desired direction. I may have to hacksaw one side of the axle. Can somebody give me a lead on a torque arm?

    So my best option with this kit is to source an Brompton Rim and lace the hub myself. Thank You
