Helmet for commuting

Indeed, who knows, it maybe later today or next week, I have ordered low cost items that are out of stock at the moment, they are just sent to you as soon as they are back in stock, no extra postage, if its a low cost puncture repair kit, just add to your order

You can get a basic puncture repair kit from most placers. High value cheep stock is all part of the way they work. So who knows when it's back in.

For me they don't let you add it to the order for some reason.

Maybe they aren’t expecting any more or it’s discontinued

Does anyone use one of these? https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/TOBAH1/barbieri-bch1-chain-cleaner-pack-(inc-detergent--lubricant)

What lubricant should I be looking to use for a Brompton bike?

There is an option to set up an email alert for when it's back in stock, but just no option to add it to the basket.

You’ll need to do that then 👍🏻

Yes, but that will mean having to pay addition shipping charges for it separately, in which case I would be better off just buying one from a local store (unless I wait until they are back in stock).

I don't have a Wilko near me, but I was in Asda earlier and saw this one too which has levers and a wrench. I assume it has everything needed:

There is also this one by Evans: https://www.evanscycles.com/fwe-patch-repair-kit-EV183173

I'm not sure if one is better than the other...

I just ordered the helmet, pump with gauge and multi-tool from Planet X.

Get quick patches 'scabs' - no need to faff with glue
And some levers

The Asda one has one 1* review (from someone who can't spell puncture )

£4 you cant go far wrong, they are glue less patches too, 20 in the pack

Give that a miss they don't work.
You don't need any thing different for a Brompton any bike lube works fine.

I didn't even check the review. I'm not even sure how a patch can be bad!
