Bike Description
Modified so the back wheel contained a silver Shimano Alfine 8-speed hub with 32 spoke holes (very unusual on a Brompton). Black frame, silver mudguards, silver M-type handlebars with winged grips, extended seatpost, Brompton saddle, red part of rear reflector missing, Schwalbe Marathon rear tyre, 16T rear sprocket, 54T chainwheel. Would be challenging to revert bike from current 8-speed hub to more normal 1, 2, 3 or 6-speed configuration because rear stays would be too wide to accommodate a normal Brompton rear wheel. When stolen, bike was relatively dirty, and had black neuroprene protective cover on crossbar (yellow inside but only visible when removed), fastened with velcro so easily removed.
