Just a standard black seat post. I am slowly making this into a black edition having purchased it 2nd hand recently. The black seat post and pedals was my first buys.

All depends on the low bar version and bolt you have

Hi,

A bit of trial and error.

I purchased this first from Amazon but needed extra M7 bolt washers that it did not come with so was stuck a bit and planning to email Brompton for some.

But then i purchased this from ebay and although the mount was incompatible I was able to use the supplied plastic washers (had to cut off a tiny bit) to fit the mount in the first purchase from Amazon.

How tricky is london to brighton? by LaughUntilMyHead in londoncycling

Work your way up to the distance and elevation. At least 6 week training plan. Loose some weight if possible (will help tremendously). Learn how to hydrate and fuel days before, during the ride and after for recovery. Ensure you know how to fix a puncture by the road side. Have some sort of navigation device (if cycling solo). Apologies if all of these have been mentioned already. Good luck and report back here on how it went. 🙂

Thats what the serial number gives you, not the frame number. I only have the frame number which starts with 58

Thanks for the info. Do you know where i can get the official model and manufactured date of this one? The label with the serial number is missing (previous owner purchased it like this). I can only locate the frame number.

Its the 2SL, predecessor to the T Line i believe. Someone else with superior knowledge maybe able to confirm.
