The saddle can be moved 30mm back by reversing its clip so that the seat pillar passes forward
of the bolt.
ADDITIONAL HEIGHT:
Riding with a saddle even slightly too low
is no fun. You can win around 15mm of
extra height by moving the saddle-clamp
up the seat pillar itself, and this might be
sufficient. If not, there are three Brompton
options which allow more height,
extended seat pillar, telescopic seat
pillar, or saddle adaptor pin pointing "up":
see Section M for details. Alternatively,
use another design of saddle, with
greater depth.
Note: if you do opt for a saddle adaptor
pin, don't mount it pointing backwards as
this could produce stresses for which the
bicycle is not designed.
SECTION E: HANDLEBAR & CONTROL POSITIONS.
The handlebars and control levers on the Brompton are factory set to provide a compromise
between compactness and riding comfort: for most users the riding position should be fine.
There is no vertical adjustment (see below), but there is some adjustment available in the fore/aft
direction. You should be aware that if you do choose to make such an adjustment, then the folded
handlebar will not lie as close to the front wheel as normal.
Handlebars or levers moved FORWARD: these will hit against the front wheel on folding, and so
prevent the handlebar catch from functioning properly: adjust the handlebar nipple as described in
section H.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you attempt to set the handlebar at a higher position by
withdrawing the lower part of the handlebar stem from the steerer tube on the front forks.
If the handlebar stem assembly has to be moved for any reason, then, on reassembly, a) leave a
gap of 0.5mm-1.5mm between the top of the steering locknut and the step in the stem under the
hinge, b) use a tightening torque of 20NM for the expander bolt (whose 6mm AF socket head is
visible when the handlebar is folded), and c) check the alignment of the handlebar catch (section
H).
