SpedDial

SpedDials could come standard on new Bromptons!
Brompton has sent out a questionnaire asking whether you care that Bromptons are quality bikes made in London. When they ask you whether you consider Brompton to be innovative, tell them they would be if they adopted the SpedDial hinge clamp design.

I've just reconnected the SpedDial website. There you can find retailers and details about Brompton hinge clamp kits. The site doesn't yet show photos of the Black Edition shown below.

I've decommissioned the SpedDial.com website. I felt it had served its purpose of getting the word out. It featured the Original version, which is still available at a discount, but not the improved Black Edition.

You can find SpedDial for sale at various web stores: in Europe at De Brompton Winkel, in the U.S. at Perennial Cycles in MN, Pasadena Cyclery in CA, PortaPedal in AZ, NYCeWheels in NY, Clever Cycles in OR, Ride This Bike in LA, Saturday Cycles in UT. In Australia, you can buy them from Velo Cycles. You can also buy them on eBay from bikeGANG.

To your health!

It is now illegal for humans to congregate on local beaches, but world travelers continue to assemble just as they did on April 3rd of last year.

SpedDial Black edition is now available!
The new clamp plates are black anodized and PTFE (DuPont calls it Teflon)-impregnated to work smoothly. They are stout, yet compact and pleasingly rounded.

Not all bikes are green - even when vine-covered. See these other places where Bromptons aren't.

The Bike-Share Oversupply in China: Huge Piles of Abandoned and Broken Bicycles Gigantic piles of impounded, abandoned, and broken bicycles have become a familiar sight in many Chinese cities, after a rush to build up its new bike-sharing industry vastly overreached.

Haven’t seen any Bromptons in Iceland. Bike Fridays might be a better choice- allowing for wider tires. “Inside the Volcano” guides ride two miles to work over snow-covered rocks.
