It features Brompton's legendary compact folding design and premium build quality and comes complete with the original Brompton Electric battery, official Brompton Essential Battery Bag, original charger and two cycle helmets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLEASE NOTE: This bike is being sold under \"For parts or not working\" due to a battery issue. Please read the description carefully before purchasing. The hub and everything else is working perfectly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImportant Condition \u0026amp; Battery Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Battery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe battery was working when I purchased the bike. It now appears to accept a charge, as the blue indicator lights illuminate when connected to the charger, but it no longer powers the bike when connected to the frame. It was working before and I can say the battery gives amazing power assistance as you cycle.. Very hard to go back to a 'normal bike'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor this reason, the battery should be regarded as faulty\/not working.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have not investigated the fault further. The battery may be repairable by a specialist, or you may simply choose to purchase a replacement battery. This has been reflected in the asking price.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Bike\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMechanically, the bike is in good used condition. The folding mechanism, frame, brakes, gears and tyres are all in good working order.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI still use the bike regularly for commuting as a standard non-electric Brompton, and it rides and folds exactly as it should. The only known fault is that the battery no longer provides electric assistance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis makes it an excellent opportunity for someone who already owns a compatible Brompton Electric battery, can source one, or wishes to repair or refurbish the existing battery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCosmetic Condition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood used condition with the usual light marks and signs of use expected from a pre-owned bicycle. Overall it presents very well. Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhy This a great opprtunity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you're looking at this listing, you'll already know that Brompton bikes hold their value extremely well, with many standard non-electric models selling for £500–£700 or more, depending on age and condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a genuine Brompton Electric 2-Speed, making it an excellent project for the right buyer. Just source a battery and you have an electric Brompton. It took my a long while to get a Brompton and I wanted this spec as I'm sure you do too. Just do it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bike itself is in good condition, and the frame, folding mechanism and components alone represent significant value.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you already own a compatible Brompton Electric battery, can source one at a good price, or are able to repair or refurbish batteries, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a genuine Brompton Electric for considerably less than buying a fully working example.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReplacement and refurbished Brompton Electric batteries regularly appear on eBay and other specialist marketplaces, making this an ideal purchase for:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Brompton enthusiasts\u003cbr\u003e- Bicycle mechanics\u003cbr\u003e- Battery repair specialists\u003cbr\u003e- Hobbyists\u003cbr\u003e- Refurbishers\u003cbr\u003e- Anyone looking for a cost-effective Brompton Electric project\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat's Included\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Genuine Brompton Electric 2-Speed Folding Bike\u003cbr\u003e- Official Brompton Electric Battery (faulty)\u003cbr\u003e- Official Brompton Electric Essential Battery Bag\u003cbr\u003e- Original Brompton 2A Charger (fully working)\u003cbr\u003e- Front luggage block\u003cbr\u003e- Two cycle helmets\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCollection is strongly preferred from Woolwich, SE18, London.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou're welcome to inspect the bike before purchasing.
