It looks like this is no longer available from BikeGang - but a caveat on it; another UA-camr had hers break after 4 months...and mine only lasted about a month before snapping.
I know from "chrisbybike", in Rio, that this type spring is rather hopeless! It separated on her bike! But you may change the bolt holding it, to titanium, as also the seat bolt, holding the rather complicatedly built, original saddle clamp (But an AceOffix clamp is lighter and better functioning). And if a "Lightweight" model, the struts are already made from titanium, so you don't need to change them (I know, as I bought an extra set, expecting them not to be!). But I found out the clamps for the struts on my mudguards are really. "Heavy Metal" and you may buy a similar, aftermarket set from carbon, which is much lighter! ;-)
Good day mat. I hate to burst your bubble but a friend of mine just put one of those fancy rear shock block and it blew apart into bits after very few rides. the metal rings looked like they exploded. She does not weigh over 75 kgs. You can see her video on Chris by bike (or something like that. She is Brazilian but lived in Australia.
@Greg Johnson - I've had the scrowave suspension block for 3-4 years now and I weigh 210 lbs or 96 kilos and rode over lots of potholes in downtown SF on my daily commute before the lockdown. This thing is bulletproof! I suspect your friend bought a knock-off or there was a manufacturing flaw.

Good day mate. The Brazilian Brompton You Tuber is Chris by Bike.
I have installed a wave spring suspension block. How has your suspension block help up?
I think it's awesome that Stephen Merchant does these videos, love your work!
Damn, you rumbled me! Where do I need to send your $5?
Give it to Karl, he needs it more than me :) Love your channel.
What is the meaning of 'firm ride?' What is its effect on comfort?
Where to get the suspension block

Yes or No Sir....you removed the wheel extender did they turn out to be more trouble than they were worth. I promise I'll sub if you reply.

Yikes. That would ruin yer day. I have watched her videos, but didn’t see that one yet.

Noticed your easywheel extender is no longer fitted. Just wondered if you had a problem with it?
I'd love to hear what happened to your wheels, too. Thanks.
What happened to the larger wheels and extender, I was thinking of getting them?
What happened to spring suspension? Mine snapped
Much nicer than the original part
I agree, very aesthetically pleasing!
Enjoy your posts and how easy was it to fit.
Thanks! Super easy, less than a minute!
Problem with titanium is they crack.
What is the point of having really stiff suspension? Why not make it solid or buy a cheaper bike with no suspension....
first two:
smooth roads,
personal preferences...
@@tiltil9442 Why buy Brompton then?
Twitchy steering and fancy shocker lol. You couldn't make it up
Awesome
Goodness me. This is amusing
Maybe you should try two layered spring... for a bit softer ride... Anyway- looks really unique.
How is the spring holding up? ua-cam.com/users/ChrisbyBike had hers break up.
