WHEELS RIMS AND SPOKES

Important information
The braking surfaces of the rim wear with use. As the rim wears, a void will appear in the braking surface. At this stage
the rim should be replaced.

Two rim tapes are avaliable:

ƒƒ QRIMTAPE-SW blue rim tape for single wall rims used on bikes produced before 2013

ƒƒ QRIMTAPE-DW yellow rimtape for double wall rims used on bikes from the start of 2013

If you are unsure of the correct fitting process please consult your Brompton dealer. Brompton cannot accept responsi-
bility for any failures due to incorrect fitting or maintenance.

Where a one or two cross pattern is used it is important not to


‘interlace’ the spokes. Fig. 1

The outside spoke (grey, fig. 1) should cross over the top of the
inside spoke.

Interlacing the spokes will put undue stress on the spokes and
cause premature spoke failure.
