BIKEgang
Brompton Non-Chamfer BB Mountain Drive Gearing System (ATS) Made in Taiwan
An Ultra wide range gearing system to maximize your Brommie performance. (No BB shell chamfering required)
Brompton as one of the best folding bike design has always suffered the lack of proper gear range for hilly terrains. BIKEgang has kept searching for the best gearing solution for quite some time. Mountain Drive is always our top choice to widen the gear range.
Mountain drive is a gearing system that makes the chainring spinning at a much lower rate (2.5:1). For instance, 56T chainring with mountain-drive engaged, will work like a much smaller one (23 tooth chainring equivalent).
This Brompton version comes with a torque arm to prevent BB shell preparation. So no BB shell preparation required.

(1:0.4 = 60t: 24t gear ratio. That is if you install 60t physical chainring. Heel kick will gear shift to 24t when engaged.)
