Wrong question. Dozens of companies make shitloads of money with selling bling-bling-products for the Brompton. Most of their products add little to no benefit and some make the bike even worse. I guess after years of watching this development Brompton simply wants a piece of that cake.What is the benefit? Do they make you irresistibly attractive to supermodels?
If you want hinge clamps that add a benefit you should look here: https://www.eerdermetaal.nl/SpedDial.html
They look to be about £30 https://www.bikegang.co.uk/bikeganghut/Speddial-Finger-Dimple-Improved-HINGE-CLAMP-KIT-p96670075Do they still make them? Clicked the link and saw the video, but if you click on their link to buy them, I couldn't find them in their shop. Don't need any, was just interested in price.
Price used to be - as far as I remember - around 40€ for the pair. I do have them on one Brompton and do like them very much. Definitively an improvement compared to the factory ones. The actual version v3 is 52€: https://www.eerdermetaal.nl/brompto...an-2021-onwards/p/144536378/category=85767001Do they still make them?

Hmm:
OUCH.
I had hoped they'd be reasonable.
Stupid of me really.
Hmm:
Origin:USA
Item location:Taiwan
I know. Which means the clamps travel around the world, in the current situation delivery times may be long and there may be import duties. On the other hand if you look at the webpage of eerdermetal in the Netherlands in their offer for the Speddial-clamps they write:Bike Gang are a Taiwanese based shop.

I do prefer working products from a simple, fast website over non working products from a "modern" overloaded javascript rich website full of SEO optimization, marketing-bullshit, fancy videos, stock photos and with no useful information about the product. So probably everyone has his preferences.OMG - the 90's called, they want their website back!
