Testing the new gear settings on my Brompton 5 speed internal hub

by Petrelli

Ran into a bump after I was loading the “sprocket upgraded” to the Brompton last night. The larger 18T sprocket was actually in contact with the rear triangle that stops the wheel from rotating.

Once I got the triangle “touched up” for the larger sprocket, I went out to a perfect place to try out the new gearing setup.
