That’s not good! Sorry to hear of your problems. I would agree that the product is not perfect yet and the management at Brompton have said the same. Almost all of the electric components are, as far as I am aware, unique to Brompton Electric. The real-world testing is happening now and we...

This is a bit of a pain to fix. Access to the 6mm Allen bolt is severely restricted by the controller and battery mount. My Allen wrench requires 30+mm clearance but only about half this is available on the bike. I could dismantle and try to remove the controller to get access but I don’t...

Not a big problem but worth checking as it’s hard to fix at the roadside. The clip on the front fork that holds the handlebar stem closed has come loose but access to the Allen bolt to tighten it is made difficult because the controller for the electrics blocks access. I will have to find a...

We did eńjoy the tour! I’d recommend having a (general) tour of the factory if you are a fan or if you are thinking about getting an Electric Brompton. I saw someone on a tour test riding the MDs bike, I think! I’m typing this sitting at the station waiting with my Brompton go to the Sussex...

That’s bad news. We visited the Brompton factory today on a tour for Brompton Electric owners. The problem of communication between the motor and controller is something the company recognises and is keen to sort out. We haven’t experienced this with ours but we heard from others who had...

My eye is healing faster than the one operated on last year so I took a new BH batteries out for a 10 miles run yesterday. It seems fine other than the display level zeroing every 10 seconds. No power fluctuation. Thinking about what the dealer told me, they tested a replacement 36v BH...

Thanks Bob. I thinks you’re right that the side display is a design weakness. I like being able to change power levels with my thumb to either save power or get out of trouble quickly though. I certainly miss it on the Brompton folding electrics - I went off the side of the road on my second...

We have a BH EMotion Neo City and a Neo Cross purchased new in 2014, and have now each travelled 2,900kms on them. They have been very good bikes for most of that time. Both handlebar controller connectors caused errors early on and were changed under warranty. The torque sensor got dirty on...
