Replacement rear wheel axle fittings
Brompton 1 / 2 speed nuts / washers
Brompton 2 speed axle fittings (for the single / two speed rear wheel)
Please note - these nuts are only for the one/two speed rear wheel. They are close enough in size that they will START to fit onto other Brompton wheels - but then will not thread correctly
Brompton Sturmey Archer hub - fixing kit
This set of nuts and washers includes tab washers for alloy shell Sturmey Archer wheels, as well as alloy shell chain indicator nut (the one with the hole drilled in the side) and chain tensioner nut / washer.
Compatible wheels (with the complete set):
Brompton BSR - Standard Ratio - 3 speed wheel
Brompton BWR - Wide Ratio - 3 speed wheel (as used on 6 speed bikes)
Technical Notes:
Tab Washers:
This pack comes with two tab washers
If you are just after the tab washers - they are Sturmey Archer and available individually
Axle nuts:
These must only be used on Sturmey Archer hubs, if used on SRAM/Brompton single or two speed hubs they may start to fit then strip the thread
Chain tensioner / gear indicator nut:
(This is the nut with a hole in the side)
Later hubs (normally with alloy shell) use the longer (19.5mm) nut - included in this set
The difference may be small - but it is essential to use the right one.
