    Thanks so much for this most informative and honest video… I got myself a set and was just waiting for my hubby to put them on, we were a bit concerned about the cable length and now like you I will put it down to experience. Thanks again for saving me a lot of stress. Cheers from Australia 🌅🌅

      Mine have gone to a new home and have been fitted to a B75, the lady who has them is pleased with the result, I fitted foam tube grips but think if I had kept them the wrap around bar tape is more durable.
      I would love to know how you get on with them.
      Thanks for watching and your comment.

    I love my butterfly bar as I use it only the upper part for straight riding

    Got several “upgrades” I’m about to make including new handlebars, hopefully I have more luck! 🤞

    I think there is good reason why Brompton stopped producing P bars.....I have a P6R-x I think the position of the hands can change only going uphill. Down hill could be lethal.

    Good review.
    Ive never liked the look of them
    Bit slow,so how long have u had the bars. And you have only discovered you dislike them now! How come?
    Best wishes

      Had them a week!
      I was so disappointed they were on the bike two days, they really don’t suit me one bit.

    How about you move the position either side to the end of the bar, looks like about an inch to play with, will give you more room for your hands

    • @NottinghamshireMadness

      You can’t, half a mm either way and it won’t fold, the forward or backwards position of the leavers and handlers has to be spot on, if you look closely the clamps are positioned a slight difference from the end of the bars just so it folds but under pressure!

    I'll swap you a used twice S bag for those bars, think about it? No problem if not though
