Brompton Decision Time

[srw]

You'll need a block for the bike first.

Then I'd recommend the black Brooks briefcase, if you're feeling (very) flush or Mrs 'em is feeling (very) generous - I'll probably have it with me on Friday if you or anyone else wants to inspect it. I'd also recommend the black Brooks saddle, and the black Schwalbe marathon plus tyres.

Very nice. I blame you lot for me going into the bike shop yesterday to look at Bromptons. I pick up my M3L next week, also in black, with the S bag on the front and no rack.

I shall be getting a black Brooks from Germany when I get my dynamo. I like to do my bit for British exports.

Thanks everyone for all the tips. Anyway I've gone ahead and bought a 6 speed black edition without a rack.

The T-bag. 35 litres not counting the pockets plus a water bottle pocket. Don't buy less.

Like the stealth clamps. Nice.

Great looking bike.....how about a nice orange O bag....would go well with the black, although it's a tad expensive

It's a bargain.
