Pimp My Brompton

Photo
OK, so I have not had my bike a week and i'm already messing with it. I'm keen to make what is a standard-ish model my own. Customize it a little i guess.

Last night I added a Brooks saddle and handle grips. Leather wears with age and should mould to my hands and bum. No doubt it will after time.. after we all get 'broken in'. 

I had a mind to camouflage the frame but am having second thoughts... It's not an easy task.. Then i thought.. I'd get @Magiprint to make me stickers in camo colours of all the social media platforms I use. That would look like camouflage from a distance but says something close up. Not sure about that now.

I am still looking for black 16" rims and black mudgards. It's not as easy to find pimping parts for a Brompton. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places.

If you have a Brompton pimped or not let me know and I can add you to my Twitter list.

I have already blogged about my recent acquisition on my other blog. It's good to have a hobby.. albeit another one. :)

Sinclair A-Bike Plus Micro Folding Bicycle

I have an A-Bike from the Sinclair Research Labs I have only ridden once. As new. It needs a good home so that I can get a folding bike that does a little more distance. I can't justify two folding bikes so if you would like it please make me an offer.
It comes with a few accessories click HERE to see more in the flickr tags.
