Recommended Posts

Brand: Brompton

Model: M3L

Short description: Titanium & Raw Lacquer

 

Frame size: folding

 

Description: Well used and loved, in need of some TLC and happy new home.

This bike is my "dream-machine" from single days before kids (happy to be riding a wonderful cargo these days:). It's been collecting dust except for occasional trips flying and time to pass it on.

About care needed: the front handelbars suffered a fall with our kid riding it, and need straitening (or replacing), and the read triangle needs to be serviced: https://www.perennialcycle.com/shopcast/replacing-brompton-rear-hinge/ the rear mudguard is damaged, and one grip is slipped: https://photos.app.goo.gl/tkj5st5HpRS7wFkN9 Priced with these in mind.

More info:
Bought in 2010 with these additions/modifications:

- Wide-Range Sturmey-Archer / Brompton 3 speed hub (previously had been SRAM), brakes, and all other parts moved onto this frame from a new 2016 bike).
- Large lower gearing front chain ring for *speed*
- Leather Brooks saddle and grips
- Extending seat post (taller riders, adds ability to remove saddle easily)
- Front Shimano dynamo hub and front/rear lights which run off hub generator

Shipping the bike in a (very worn) Brompton B Bag https://www.evanscycles.com/en-fi/brompton-b-bag-00100439 which is included in the price (can be checked as regular luggage on most flights)

Hi Jani. Yup, it’s a treasure for right person:) Looking at other sale prices I’d considered listing for 1300, but honestly 1000 seems fair, and prefer a “bro deal” local sale without eBay. I know the bike and Bromptons in general pretty well (I’ve owned 5 in total:) so feel free to ask on email or call me on 0504406277.

Minulla on myös taittopyörä, ja rakastan sitä niin paljon, että hankin myös taittopyöräkypärän.

Ostin Overadelta PLIXI FIT -taittokypärän, ja se on muuttanut elämäni. Molemmat laitteet taittuvat niin nopeasti. Voin säilyttää niitä helposti työpöytäni alla tai kotona. Suosittelen!!!
