Sundry parts! That sounds a bit like a great category for left-overs that couldn't really fit in anywhere else?
A range of accessories from Brompton
The sundries range includes:
Saddles (and pentaglips to mount the saddle to the seat post) - we gave these their own category
Handlebar grips

The standard saddle has black saddle rails (compatible with most other bike saddles - one of the few things that are pretty compatible across bikes) and a leather covering
The stitching which was on earlier model year saddles has been removed - this means there is less chance of chaffing
Both of these made for Brompton saddles feature two mounting holes on the underneath - allowing the fitment of a CatEye rear light
Also available from Brompton - to give some English Style - are brown leather Brooks saddles (available as a mens or ladies fit) - this is the Brooks B17 special with copper coloured rails and rivets. We describe these as being like Birkenstock shoes - they take a while to mould to your body - then provide a comfortable fit. Like a fine pair of leather shoes, they also need some looking after.
We used to have some of the older Brompton coloured saddles in stock - Blue, White, Yellow, Red and Lime. Unfortunately these are now sold out). These older saddles have better looking stitching (in our opinion) and no mounting point for the CatEye light
We try and keep at least one of each saddle in stock at all times - so you can get your Brompton back on the road as soon as possible if you need to replace it - however, due to the pandemic, supplies have currently run out!
To attach the saddle to the seatpost - you will need a Pentaclip (Bromptons own design of saddle / seat post interface). This allows the saddle to be connected to the bike and adjusted forwards and backwards on the saddle rails, approx 2cm / 1 inch of up / down adjustment by turning the Pentaclip upside down, and adjusting of the saddle angle
Brompton have traditionally supplier the Brooks B17 special (in brown) as an option for Brompton folding bikes - there are also other compatible saddles available in a range of colours from Brooks England (and some grips to match)
The Brooks saddle supplied by Brompton for years is available in different colours:
These saddles are available in mens or ladies/short sizes - and some with a carved centre for pressure relief when riding
These are a more weather resistant saddle - available in a choice of width and colour
Handlebar grips are important - because they are one of just three contact points between you and the bike (along with the saddle and pedals)
There are 4 Brompton models - defined by handlebar type:
There is a slight complication in that M-type / H-type bars changed in 2017 from low rise to high rise, so for grips there are the following possibilities:
So the grips for M/H type bars (since 2017) and S-type are the same - they are 130mm lock on - quite common through the bike world, meaning you now have a greater choice of grips for your Brompton
We have included the Ergon grips here as they were fitted on the Brompton CHPT3 2017/2018 edition - Ergon GA2 (in red) and on the NYC edition - Ergon GP2.
The Ergon grips are designed specifically to give you a more comfortable ride
We have included the Brooks Slender leather grips - as these are shorter than standard grips and we think are ideal as an upgrade for B75 / high rise (pre-2017 bars) where there is less room for the grips (this is because of the sharper bend on the old handlebars)
This is a pair of Pre-2017 Brompton handlebar grips for your S-type (straight handlebar) Brompton.
