    Brompton

    My first Brompton went back to the factory and came back worse than before! It was one of the first ones available. The second one worked very well but I had an unrelated to cycling accident and broke my elbow. I was concerned that the vibration would cause problems as the break was bad so as I...

    Questions on Brompton ebike sensor

    Hi.... If you start with the LEFT pedal, the power should come in after 1/4 to 1/2 a rotation of the pedals. I have had two electric Bromptons and that's how they worked, as did the demo bike I tried. Good luck

    Brompton Electric Bike... Made by Brompton

    I found cycling really helps after knee surgery... full movement and pretty good muscle strength bearing in mind I had my kneecap removed 40 years ago which loses a lot of “leverage “. The reason I was holding back on purchase was I didn’t want a new bike sitting there and unable to use it for...

    Brompton Electric Bike... Made by Brompton

    When I started this thread I posted a detailed report. All was well. Then I had problems that neither the dealer nor Brompton could solve so I got a full refund as it was deemed “ not fit for the purpose “. I posted that I would wait until the spring and try again. Well I waited a bit longer as...

    Brompton Electric Bike... Made by Brompton

    I find your comments after the software updates very interesting. You comment about the update probably “lowering the torque threshold”. Sorry but I’m having a grey moment...... do you mean the torque comes in lower which will give more power available for a hill start? The one I had did make...

    Brompton Electric Bike... Made by Brompton

    I think my Brompton must have been from a bad batch.. I’m willing to try again, especially as you can now buy from a dealer. When the weather improves and the frosts and white stuff goes, I will order myself another electric Brompton and put my Lime Green H6R up for sale. Hopefully the iOS app...

    Review Swytch Brompton kit review

    I emailed them with a simple question and after four weeks.... still no reply. They don’t seem keen on advertising a telephone number or an address to make it easy to get in touch. As far as I’m concerned, after sales service is the number one thing I look for and having seen the last two...

    I've done it!

    The bike looks great. I had a Cube with a Bosch crank drive and it was great. The Cube you have chosen has a great spec. It looks the part and I’m sure you’ll love it. I look forward to your review after you’ve done a few miles.
