Simple Rohloff Brompton

A simple Rohloff Brompton with no extras 😉

This Brompton is destined for Alaska – it has an integral rear rack, Rohloff hub, Hope disc brakes and Cinq5 shifters.

This P-type Brompton got a Rohloff hub on my rear frame with an integral rack, SON dynamo lighting and Hope hydraulic disc brakes.

This Nickel Brompton was upgraded with Alfine Di2 8-speed electronic gears, Hope hydraulic disc brakes and SON dynamo lighting.

This recumbent cargo trike was built mostly from 4130 chromoly steel, with an aluminium seat frame and stainless steel and aluminium fittings.

The large cargo box has a tailgate, lighting, fenders, and a trailer hitch underneath.

The drive system uses a Rohloff gear in the centre, driving a differential to both back wheels. The braking is from disc brakes on both back wheels.

A Heinzmann DirectPower motor in the front wheel is powered by a battery carried on the box – a spare battery fits to the other side of the box.

Built with an integral rear rack, Rohloff 14-speed hub with Cinq5 gear shifters, SON Edelux dynamo lighting and Hope hydraulic disc brakes.

This Brompton got an Alfine 11-speed hub gear with the Di2 electronic shifting.

It also has Hope hydraulic disc brakes.

This bike has a copper-plated mainframe, which should age beautifully.

It’s got a Rohloff hub gear, Hope hydraulic disc brakes, SON dynamo lighting, Hope headset, and loads of other little details.

This custom frame was built around the Pinion enclosed gearbox.

This is the 9-speed version, but there are versions with up to 18 gears.

Built to be belt-drive ready.

Hope disc brakes.

A great colour combination for this build, with a lime green mainframe, red hubs and light, and the rest of the build in black.

Rohloff hub with Cinq5 thumbshifters, SON hub dynamo lighting, and TRP Spyre / HY/RD disc brakes.
