BROMPTON
FRONT AXLE HOOK & FITTINGS
$16.99
Genuine Brompton Front Axle Hook & Fittings. This clever little hook is what sets Brompton apart from every other folding bike brand out there! The Front Axle Hook is essential to the fold and keeps the bike securely held together while carrying and towing without the need for unreliable magnets.
Fitted to all Brompton bikes, this little part is very strong but can become brittle over time and break, or maybe you have just been in an accident. Then this is the part you need.
The Front Axle Hook is available in two versions. Version L & R is for bikes with Mudguards and is designed to fit onto the mudguard stays - includes the necessary bolt and washers. Version E is for bikes without mudguards and is supplied with the wire form which acts as a stop against the chainring meaning you get a perfect fold.

Brompton is the only company we've seen that answers all three criteria - and believe us, we've tried every brand out there. The reason others can't compete is because Brompton has answered a fundamental engineering problem. If a bike is going to unfold to a large footprint (which takes the twitch out) then it is unfolding to a bigger bike - and by all logic, a bigger bike unfolded would be a bigger bike folded. So, it's pretty much true that for most folding bikes they either have great rideability but poor transportability or vice versa. And nearly all of them are a mess to fold.
Not Brompton. Brompton has designed the Platonic form of all folding bikes. The bike folds to the smallest size on the market, unfolds in a highly precise and easy manner, and has the same axle-to-axle footprint as a hybrid bike. How did they do this? By not only designing a clever frame, but also designing some 1200 proprietary parts that make everything fit - and fit perfectly. Oh, and nearly all of this is made in England. No wonder this bike has a cult following.
