      Hi Hands on Brompton
      Nice to hear from you.
      This month I'll be making only quick tips and Shorts.
      To hot for a nice long ride.

    Absolutely right, when looking at your back either left or right. i almost fell one time when i turn my head and just holding it with just one hand (right). i never did this again and i just hold it tight and steady first with two hands before looking behind. Nice tip ! 😀👍

      Hi Willy Co
      Yes, I've seen it happend several times, especially with road bikes that ride so close to each other.
      I'm glad you like it!
      Nice to have you on board!

    As an old man of 75, with a bad balance from an early, serious accident in my twenties, I hardly look back unless I have stopped, with my feet on the ground. I have a mirror to put on my handlebar for this purpose, which I will put on my bike, "when I get the time", as also changing parts to even lighter ones. I can't quite hit the 7,45 kilo + the weight of a set of mudguards, but I may come really close, also with my set mudguards! But I have lately got a new "Garmin Explore" to navigate my bike by, as I haven't wasted money on a Smartphone, and its much higher expenses. I have a mobile, which I hardly use, and pays a nominal fee to have. Finn. Denmark

      Hi Finn Carl Bomholt Sørensen
      A mirror is a great option. But been a road biker I've hot used to not have them and need to check back if there is a car or a Ciclist coming up.

      @@ChrisbyBike I have seen a small mirror to be put in the end of a racing bike handlebar, to give a view of what's coming from behind!! And we have also just had a serious accident, where a car opened a door in front of a bike, so the rider got hit by it!!!

      Hi Finn Carl Bomholt Sørensen
      It is a terrible accident.
      I was 15 coming back from school when a taxi open the door and throw me splashing to the ground.
      It hurts a lot.

      Hi Sheila Stallard
      Mirrors are a great option, but as a road biker I have a habit of not using mirrors on my bike.
      Road bikers are funny people, we try to take all the weight possible from our bikes.
      No need for Brompton Bikes 👍🏻😊🌷

    Olá Chris.
    Suas dicas são sempre muito interessantes e úteis para todos que se interessam por bicicletas e principalmente para usuários de Brompton, como eu e minha esposa.
    Sabe me dizer se existe algum grupo de Brompton no Rio de Janeiro que organize encontros para troca de experiências ou passeios? Desde que comprei a minha em setembro ainda não descobri um grupo aqui no Rio.
    Muito obrigado.

      Oi Leandro Bueno
      Que bom que você gostou. Tento sempre compartilhar as coisas que aprendo.
      Seja bem vindo ao mundo das Bromptons.
      Aqui no Rio somos poucos.
      Tem um grupo de watts up das Bromptons do Brasil, que é bem interessante e tem uma ótima troca de ideias.
      Se quiser participar, depois me envia um e-mail para contact.chrisbybike@gmail.com com o seu tel e da sua esposa que peço para adicionarem vocês no grupo.
      Nice to have you on board!
