    Brompton E bike 2014?

    I've had 3 brackets on my bikes so far. The home made "fork plates" on my Street Machine, a properly engineered bracket for my CX700 and for my Brompton. You can see the plates in the video and you have seen the Brompton bracket. Here is the CX700 bracket:

    Brompton E bike 2014?

    Created a playlist of some short videos that I took when I first started messing about with my Street Machine. I also included a well liked action shot of me arriving at work one day having almost completed my commute without incident. It shows the robustness of my solution...

    Brompton E bike 2014?

    Its one of Cytronex's Tongxins. 175 rpm. Its what was on my Cannondale CX700. When I started to think about the SM solution for my HPVelo Street Machine I decide I wanted a "hub cap" which I got a local engineering co. to machine for me. That meant that I didn't need to open up the hub which I...

    I'm warming to this forum. The ease of use is impressive.

    Yes. I have been away for a while and first impression of the "new" site is great. p.s. if anyone can help me sort out my signature that would be fab!

    Support TfL's "Crossrail for Bikes"

    They got my support. The link in the "how to respond" section didn't work for me so will phone them! - didn't need to phone - there was a link further down that worked ok.

    Brompton E bike 2014?

    My "stokemonkey" bracket solves the battery problem and the wiring. I can lift it on and off the train and have on occasion carried it across footbridges!

    Jigsaw Puzzle Happiness - Andy Williams

    Having an Ebike has taken me down many roads and has been live changing. Cycling to pubs of the same name, cycling between lifeboat stations and cycling between railway bridges are all things that can be done unassisted but for me is so much more fun on an Ebike. My latest cycling involves...

    Brighten up the forum a little :)

    Just trying to get back online and contributing again. Using the tapatalk app. Seems I can reply to threads but not start one. Sorry to pick on your thread. I dare say it's been a bit boring without me. I'll do my best to brighten it up :)

    Stoke Monkey Brompton

    Thanks Jerry. It was this forum that provided the inspiration and encouragement. I got this particular Brompton 4 months ago and have been commuting short distances between home, station and work. Sometimes I get off a station early and cycle the 7 miles or so. Sometimes I get off at Woking...

    Stoke Monkey Brompton

    Hi All, Long time, no post. I'm afraid its the same old tune from me. Since I discovered the Stoke Monkey I can't seem to get it off my back! I'm particularly pleased with this one. I started working in London hence the attraction towards the Brompton which I have to say is brilliant! :)

    Cannondale CX700 Stoke Monkey Conversion

    Hit a couple of snags. My sprockets are 3/32" but I really need 1/8". Ordered a 21 tooth sprocket from Velosolo. My chain ring is 42 tooth so that 1:2 ratio which is what I think I need. Need to sort out the mount for the pedelec sensor as I can't find the original bracket - how can that be? I...
