 Hahaha. These are a high ticket item.

 Is your personal bike? Is the clearance any different than with the

 Ash,

 A Bosco can be done if you can make the reach and folded math work. 

 The clamp is 25.4 and the mast folds down so the reach-back juts 
 away from the bike. You'd have a bigger folded footprint but still 
 crazy 
 compact relative to storing or transporting a full-size bike. 

 The ETT is about 60cm with no stem reach. You'd have the reach to 
 the flat part of the bar in the same range as stock Brom bars but the 
 rest 
 is coming WAY back. You'll never sit up any straighter on a bicycle 
 than 
 holding the ends of a Bosco on a Brompton! 

 Wondering if the Bosco bar would work for a Brompton.

 Brompton is in my N+1 list, but Bosco is a must.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[J L]

Dom,

Wider tire?  Give me a month for a ride report :) 

The largest tire made for 349 rims is the 349X1 1/2. They work out to be about 
38-40mm in practice. That fits the fork on all models and the rear frame on 
many, but not all. Ti models are a little tighter. The real pinch point is the 
rear brake caliper.

Greenspeed in AUS used to make a model called Scorcher. A little internet 
searching  will direct you to these tires used on Bromptons, including a blog 
from a store in Japan from a few years back. 

Greenspeed is no longer, but you can still get 60tpi or 120tpi scorchers from a 
recumbent shop in Australia. They also have their own house brand in the same 
size called TRUBLU.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[Dominic Ryan]

Hi Jason,

It is indeed (although I live in Japan so Honjo products are much cheaper
here).

There is a tiny amount more clearance, however it seems there is no way to
get a wider tire on the Brompton due to the frame shape (unless anyone here
knows otherwise?)

I'd love to see some wider and more interesting tire options for Brompton!

 Eric,

 Here's my Brompton in it's natural element -  multi-modal transport.
 I'm 6'7" tall and ride 65-68 cm road bikes, and the Brompton with the
 telescoping seat post and the H bars works well for me.

great thread and welcome to the club jason.  mine is similiar to yours when 
i got it.  be prepared for the tinker bug!  i turned my fender model into a 
rack one with a rack and new fender.   it makes push cart mode much more

i also added a dyno front wheel and light.  

they are useful in a way that is very different from a full size bike.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[Philip Barrett]

I got loose at Aliexpress today & ordered a titanium seatpost (600mm) since 
the one I have is pretty gouged in places. That & the little phone holder 
that mounts on the stem bolt.

My lack of self control will probably have me returning for the titanium 
rear rack too!

 Wondering if the Bosco bar would work for a Brompton.  

 Brompton is in my N+1 list, but Bosco is a must.

Eric, the sage green Brompton in the picture I included in my earlier post 
above is equipped with the telescoping seat post.  My PBH is 96cm.  Both 
bikes have the 'H" style handlebar.

 Mine came as the "raw lacquer", but from the factory it is really a 
 paint color and not just raw metal with lacquer over. I am using metal 
 bluing with varnish over as touch up, that is close to the color.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[rltilley]

I’m only 5’ 11” with an 86 cm PBH. I have one Brompton with a standard seat 
post and one with the telescoping seat post. The standard post is about perfect 
for me at full extension. I use maybe an extra inch on the telescoping post. 
You’d need the telescoping post and likely the H bars as well.

Joe, 

Thanks for those useful tidbits.  Now it is even more interesting.  This

 I'm thinking of doing a strip down to raw metal & lacquer over the
 winter as I love that look.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[Joe Bernard]

Ash,

A Bosco can be done if you can make the reach and folded math work. 

The clamp is 25.4 and the mast folds down so the reach-back juts away from 
the bike. You'd have a bigger folded footprint but still crazy compact 
relative to storing or transporting a full-size bike. 

The ETT is about 60cm with no stem reach. You'd have the reach to the flat 
part of the bar in the same range as stock Brom bars but the rest is coming 
WAY back. You'll never sit up any straighter on a bicycle than holding the 
ends of a Bosco on a Brompton! 

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[Ashwath Akirekadu]

Nice to see all those cute pictures!

Wondering if the Bosco bar would work for a Brompton.  

Brompton is in my N+1 list, but Bosco is a must.

Re: [RBW] Bring Out The Brompton!

[Rick Thompson]

That is a Wald 582 folding metal basket, with a Trigo adapter plate 
modified to fit it to the carrier block. It is not light, but nothing on 
mine is...

Mine came as the "raw lacquer", but from the factory it is really a paint 
color and not just raw metal with lacquer over. I am using metal bluing 
with varnish over as touch up, that is close to the color.

Rick: which basket is that? Aliexpress & typing "brompton + titanium" 
certainly brings up some lovely items too.

I'm thinking of doing a strip down to raw metal & lacquer over the winter
