I want one of these:
.
“The ‘best’ folding electric bike there is! The smallest folder fitted with the smallest and lightest motor system that is silent, powerful and efficient. The motor is built-in to the hub of a front or rear bicycle wheel 16”-27″/700C (3 speeds available). A choice of batteries (SLA, NiMh or Li-Po (LithiumPolmer)) is available for different range, budget and weight requirements. Speed control is by means of a handlbar twist or thumb ‘throttle’, and pedal sensing (Pedal Action Sensor or Pedal Force Sensor) is available. Continuous output power of 250 watts and peak output of 425 Watts (600 Watts available with high voltage option) makes the nano system legal for use in UK and European countries, as well as Australia, USA and most other countries. see www.nano-motor.co.uk and www.mr-motorvator.co.uk for details”
very nice…
Absolutely brilliant,superb.Definetely the best folding bike and now with an electric motor WOW.Where can I get one.
Geoff, you can’t yet buy one off the shelf, but you can order a brompton from any good bike shop (12 week wait when I ordered mine though) and then order a kit from https://www.nano-motor.co.uk/nanobrompton.php
My brompton should be ready for me in second week of December – can’t wait! 🙂
I have been trying since the beginning of August to order an electric motor kit from these folks for my Bromptons. I continue to get back an automated response to the effect that they just can’t keep up with orders. I have tried 4 times, most recently yesterday, and get the same response. I used the contact e-mail on the website mentioned by Josef above. Any ideas? I am so excited about the prospect of an electric Brompton!!!
Yeah, they are very behind, I’ve been waiting a while too. Try phone the mobile number on the site too. I think the more you chase the more likely you’ll get to the top of the queue. I’ve been waiting a while too! 🙂
I’ve now got one! Wooohooo 🙂
Its only day 1, but loving it so far 🙂
PS – if you want one, drop me a line because if you order through me I can get you a small discount 🙂
Nice one. I will also have one someday.
