Brompton BLACK 16 inch front wheel

Brompton BLACK front wheel

Brompton Front wheel : This is a genuine BLACK edition Brompton front wheel with double wall rim. The BLACK edition wheel is the same as the standard wheel but with black spokes, part of the rim (not the braking edges) and the hub painted black.

Double wall rim version of the wheel - the same as the standard front wheel introduced by Brompton at the beginning of 2013. The rim is the straight drilled hole version (Q part code: QRIM-28-STD). The rim tape is now yellow (previous to the 2013 and onwards model it was blue)

The Brompton front wheel size is 16 x 1 3/8 - ISO/ETRTO 37-349 (although really that's the default tyre size - the wheel takes tyres with a diameter 349mm)

This 16 inch front wheel manufactured by Brompton for their folding bike range comes complete with the following:

• Wheel nuts
• Washers
• Tab washers
• Rim tape (yellow for the double wall rim)
• Fitting instructions.

The Brompton front wheel is radially laced - meaning that the spokes come out from the hub to the rim without criss-crossing any other spokes. This gives a nice clean look.

Cone nuts: Outer locknut requires a 15mm cone wrench (or spanner) / inner requires a 14mm cone wrench
