Brompton E bike 2014?

[Deleted member 4366]

Is it a Q100 with a specially machined adaptor?

Can we see the bike unfolded too?

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!View attachment 9554

had visions of a few hours of whacking a bpm on a stokemonkey bracket with a right crankarm...that's beginning to look like structural welding and much more complicated. I also wonder how I'd feel about a chain humming away powerfully somewhere between my legs..

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 wanted to avoid. Here is a nice action photo of Bharath on the Brommie.

I also referred to the "hub cap" as a "bangle"

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!

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:

With the extra weight you need to upgrade the transit wheels to solid PU wheels.
