Brompton BLACK edition 1 or 2 speed rear wheel for all models of Brompton folding bikes complete with rim tape and fixings

The BLACK edition wheel is just like the standard single / two speed wheel but has black spokes, part of the rim (not the braking surface) and the hub painted black. It was originally developed for the limited edition BLACK edition bikes in 2015 and 2016.

The same wheel is used for the Brompton single and two speed rear wheel.

A different stack of sprockets / spacers is required based upon which configuration you need for the weel.

For a single speed Brompton use the single 12T sprocket set - QRSPRSTACK-BB1
For a two speed Brompton use the double 12T / 16T sprocket set - QRSPRSTACK-BB2

In addition, you will need wheel nuts - they are not supplied - as you could potentially use the old ones if you are replacing the same wheel type. The wheel nuts for the single / two speed Brompton rear wheel have the code QRW2NB.

This wheel (hub) uses Shimano style splines for the sprockets - so with the correct spacers / chain length you could use different sprocket sizes if required. Though as standard the single speed uses 12T and the two speed uses a 12T / 16T combination.
