Pimp My Brompton?  That's awesome



*Little Moment* 

:D

I rode one at SPEZI a couple of years back. Juliane said it was the last one she was going to make. I'm not instinctive at 2 wheel recumbents, but after a couple of false starts I got going and it felt just right.

Typical for me to hanker after 3000 Euro's worth of bike...

If I had a baby elephant, it could help me wash the car. If I had a car.

Don't forget that the wider pool of pictures is available in Flickr's group of the same name:

Nobby, Ben Kinetics has done a couple disc brake conversions splendidly warranty-voiding outright modifications, the first of which also featured a Rohloff on the back and a SON up front!  :o

I like Clarks 'gold' brake pads, the triple compound type. Well, it's probably a single compound in 3 colours for the sake of looking hi tech, but anyway, they seem to work better than koolstop to me.

I just stocked up on a load as there's a special offer here:

And it's belt-drive too! So no oily chain out the front.  *want want want*
