If you're not talking about just Bromptons but any bike I've done a few upgrades to my NWT. It's been fully customized on almost every part with the most notable bits including:

- SON20R dynohub with Supernova E3 front light and rear light
- Brooks B17 (think that that is what you meant) saddle
- MKS detachable pedals
- Rohloff hub

Hi Bikemike!

Welcome to the Brommie family!  Grin I think most of us only mod our saddle and tyres for better comfort. The Brompton is already a top-notch piece of hardware, so not much mod required. Have fun with it and see you in our rides soon.

Yes, looking at it  .... it is an almost complete package.  Will shortly look into upgrading the following parts after breaking-in in one month time:

-  Superslick Tyres ... 1.1 maybe ... but Kojak price will become very attractive a few months time  Wink

-  Seat-post to lightweight Aluminum .... not sure about this yet.  Weight not much of a concern to me yet.

-  I have already 2 pairs of MKS.  So will keep the Brompton's pedal in stock condition now.

One point to note though .... the rear mud-guard is sometime rubbing onto the tyres.  Just need to bend bend a bit once in awhile.

Will be test riding it tomorrow .... will push the capability of the bike a bit  Grin
