Welcome to the fold!

A community for all Bromptonites of the Fediverse!

The Brompton is a folding bicycle which is known for its unique design and compact folded size. The 3-part fold transforms the bike into an incredibly small locked package in no time.

Made in London, UK - loved all over the world. <3

I tried #Ergon GP2 handlebar grips today on my #Brompton (M bar, 2023 version) - and I have mixed feelings. ๐Ÿ˜’

After removing the stock grips and trying to fit the GP2's, the realization came pretty quick: they are roughly 1cm too long. So, I cut them to the right size (as a lot of others also did).

Now they fit nicely, but since the horns are using up space on sides of the grips, my (large) hands don't have enough space and now my thumbs collide a little with the shifters.
