    Very nice.
    But also pretty much the only original stock part left is the frame.
    Would you mind telling me how much the bike weighs and how much the total cost was for bike + upgrades/parts?

      Hi Henry, We haven’t check the weight after all the upgrade but we will get back to you on that, regarding the cost, upgrade cost more than the bike.

      Thanks for the response.
      I recently got a CHPT3 and was asking just to work out what are very essential upgrades that would actually make a difference in weight and better ride.
      I am not intending to completely modify the bike as I think it would defeat the purpose of getting a CHPT3.
      Although I really enjoy seeing what you guys come up with.

    I love the upgrades that you have made. I especially like the colour, navy blue and black. In my opinion, it is better than Brompton's own black version.

    Excellent video and upgrades! Outstanding bike! How would you do the reverse and convert a 2-speed Brompton to a 1-speed? Brompton has apparently discontinued production of single speed bikes. So, the only way to get the same simplicity and minimal maintenance is through conversion. Thanks for sharing your videos!

    • @781BromptonPremiumParts
      @781BromptonPremiumParts  3 роки тому

      You are so kind Tanya, we are happy that we inspire you somehow, to convert it to single speed, you will only need some cogs spacers then remove the shifters, we haven’t tried it but any questions just give us a buzz!

    Am I dreaming, or are those tires beefier than normal? I’m desperately seeking a way to modify my Brompton to accommodate the cobble boulders here in my small Mexican village. I need better suspension and fatter tires. And suggestions?

      There's a saying from the days of wooden sailings ships that a vessel in which virtually every bit of wood has been replaced remains the same ship. Perhaps that is true of bicycles.
