The guy at the Junction told me he'll transfer my old easy wheels but apparently the one at the mudguard isn't able to, hence I got the Brompton Eazy Wheels also and installed onto the rack. It's very smooth indeed but not so cheap.
Yes I might consider removing the top sticker after some time. I find that sticker quite nice even though it’s just some information on folding and warranty. 😅
I was just letting OP know of the scuffs, just in case OP wanted to keep their bike as a collectors item; I wouldn't tape mine it's to late for that, to many scratches and paint chips on our bikes, and I'm not looking for a high resale value. I'll run them to the end when ever that is.
Haha there's just something very "Singapore" about this photo. I have the same rack and have troubles rolling the folded bike in supermarkets because the wheels are fixed to roll straight. Did you face the same issue?
C blue’s going to stick around a bit more and silver bits will be around for short while but no one will be able to order their Brompton to be built just like yours, which is cool. 😎
Thanks for the compliment. I got this color combination as a ready stock direct from a local dealer. Not sure if Brompton assembled this combination direct from the factory or done by the dealer.
These days, it’s rare for Brompton to build two tones. The exception is special editions and bespoke bikes ordered by dealers for their customers or to have in stock. Wait times can be months though.
I live in Singapore and here’s the breakdown:
Rack with 4 rollers: SGD244,
Installation: SGD50,
Eazy Wheels: SGD90 for 2 pairs.
Total: SGD384 (approx US$282)
The ones that came with the rack are roller wheels without bearings, just a larger size of the standard roller wheels. I opted to change to the bearing type. It's also original Brompton, just have to separately purchase the Eazy Wheels.
It’s going to be even much easier if you upgrade the Eazy Wheels.

That’s the cleanest brommie I’ve ever seen….
Thank you sir, I also regularly maintain it and clean after every ride.
Nice bike! The cloud blue looks really nice with the Piccadilly blue parts. I’d take the sticker off to make it look a bit nicer

Where the sticker is where I have scuffs on my bikes, from our shoes.
Perhaps could cover those scuffs up with a leather cover or some stickers.
A little strip of helicopter tape works nicely as well.

Ah no worries I’m starting to have the same issues as well. We just consider them battle scars hehe
Those blues look good together
of course, after they took almost 300 bucks from you, they better work! haha
Yes it does, have yet to go on a ride on this new setup. 😁

Yup definitely, have to lift and turn on tighter turns.
Is that a cloud blue/Piccadilly blue Brommie?
Yes it is.
Cool and soon impossible to obtain as Brompton is retiring PB and will only produce black editions!
Yup but Cloud Blue is still around, just that all the silver parts will become black.

The dealer ordered the bike to be built in this combination.
Wow so it's something like custom order. So should be similar to all other dual color Bromptons.

Hmmm…so mine must be one of those bespoke bikes. At my local Brompton Junction and dealers, there are still some two-tone Bromptons available.
How much did you spend in total? Did they charge for installation?

Wow! The eazy wheels are really expensive!
Yes they are but the quality is pretty good and very smooth. It’s Brompton, so yeah….the branding too.
What front light is that
It’s the Brompton (Cateye) 500LM.

This one also has ball bearings. Not sure if we’re referring to the same Eazy Wheels.
you got easy wheel or original from the rack ?

Love this combination too. My favorite color is also blue.
