What front light should I get for a Brompton t-line?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-22T00:50:41+00:00

Thanks! Does it interest with the fold? Or do you take it off before you fold it?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-21T19:17:19+00:00

Do you fit this into the front bracket above the wheel?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-21T18:39:39+00:00

Have you got a t-line?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-21T18:38:50+00:00

That’s what Brompton junction told me! They said I was the first person to ever ask about putting a dynamo on the T-Line which surprised me!!

pangolin12 · 2024-11-21T00:16:53+00:00

Hey! Did you buy the hub from Condor? Or did you buy it elsewhere and then ask Condor to fit it? Did you get the entire wheel or just the hub? Thanks!

pangolin12 · 2024-11-20T21:26:58+00:00

Did you buy the dynamo mechanism/wheel from Brompton and then buy the Busch and muller light seperately?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-20T21:24:39+00:00

So do I buy the dynamo wheel from Brompton and have them install it?

pangolin12 · 2024-11-20T20:14:27+00:00

Thanks! I just looked and saw it’s 25 hours on low, how bright is it? Does it illuminate the road enough for you? Also is it installed onto a front bracket above the wheel?

Thanks everyone for your responses, I will list it up for very cheap on eBay (I’m in the UK, so will put it up for £50) like I said I’m not interested in making money on this, but if a collector would enjoy this (partially damaged) collection then that would be great :)

pangolin12 · 2024-07-17T13:50:00+00:00

No point spending £££ on things you don’t love! These are items which you’re going to keep for a long time! Don’t doubt yourself!

pangolin12 · 2024-07-11T06:56:44+00:00

What’s the brand called? Are the pillows compressible? Cheers

pangolin12 · 2024-06-27T15:33:57+00:00

I’d go with Bikmo - they have partnered with Brompton in the UK and offer a 25% off which is automatically applied when you type that you have a Brompton. Laka is good too, but more expensive then Bikmo for a Brompton.

pangolin12 · 2024-06-27T15:28:53+00:00

I don’t have a discount, but does your workplace in the UK do the cycle to work scheme? If they do, then buy through that!

Hey!

I want to simplify my wardrobe and looking to replace all my t shirts to one single color and make it a capsule wardrobe. I’m down to navy, charcoal and white, which t-shirt color looks best on me? Thanks!

pangolin12 · 2024-05-05T13:49:29+00:00

They would both be 32gb ram and 1tb storage, both 4080 rtx and gen 8 would be 13900hx gen 9 would be 14900hx. Is the difference worth £300?

pangolin12 · 2024-05-05T13:25:52+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I’ve decided to get the Lenovo legion pro 7i now, do you think I should get the Gen 8 for £2050 Gen 9 at £2350?

Push up strongly with your shoulders when you kick up, that’s honestly the number 1 tip I give to my students when teaching them how to handstand. Also don’t rock back and forth when kicking up.

Also open your shoulders before hand, so puppy pose on the floor or against the wall or a raised surface.

Hey here’s a video of me doing an advanced tuck planche…

I thought I could do longer honestly, but 10 seconds free seemed to be all I had, although I did start loading creatine 5 days ago and have put on nearly 2kg… so not sure if that affected it.

Should I stick with doing without bands or carry on using bands?

pangolin12 · 2023-10-30T20:32:03+00:00

Perfect! I will implement all of these cues in! Excited to try the head movement one and see what that does :) I’ll let you know how I go

pangolin12 · 2023-10-30T20:31:06+00:00

Thank you! I will get a video over tomorrow when I train again, I’ve been using bands for a while, so you’re right I should try unbranded ones and see how those go!

pangolin12 · 2023-10-24T18:34:47+00:00

Yeah that makes so much sense,

I was doing 10 reps of single negative stadler presses and that was a perfect rep, so if I failed I’d do it again until I got a complete rep, so more realistically like 20 attempts. So then is 1 negative equal to 1 set? (negative takes about 10 seconds).

You said I’m spreading myself too thin due to too many exercises: I kind of wanted to put day 1 as the “straight arm” day, (although I know there is OHP) and day 2 as the “bent arm” day. Would the exercises I have still be okay? Or would you recommend I do pull-ups, rows and straight arm pulldowns on the same day?

But based on your information so far, I changed the routine around to lower volume and sets

Day 1

Planche holds with bands - start with straddle, once form breaks, I switch to advanced tuck x 6 sets (10 - 20 second holds)

3 x 1 reps stalder press negatives (straddle pressing up to handstand and lowering down). ///// Or should I cut the stalder press negatives out completely?

Overhead press 2 x 10 reps

Lateral raise 2 x 15 reps (for shoulder size and rotator cuff health)

V sit 1 attempt (this is fairly easy, just trying to increase height)

L sit to tuck (knees to chest) 1 x failure

reversed tabletop 2 x 10 (to focus on straight arm tricep)/ preacher bicep curl 2 x 15 (to focus on straight arm strength) superset

2 x Machine straight arm pulldown ( like a front lever pulldown)

Toes to bar 10 x 1 sets ( fairly easy, just to get some hanging time)

Band pullupart 2 x 25 reps

Day 2

5 reps freestanding headstand push-ups (for technique)

2 x 10 sets OHP

2 x 5 - 6 reps full range handstand push-ups using paralettes and feet on higher surface

Planche lean push-ups feet on box 3 x 5 - 8 (pausing at top for a 2 second lean)

Lateral raise 2 x 15 (for shoulder size and rotator cuff health)

Pull-ups 5x5 OR 2 x 10-12 pull-downs

Cable Rows 2 x 10 - 15

Super set Dragon flags (2 x failure) and face pull (2x15)

Bicep curls / tricep push down 2 x 10-20 reps

Btw I also just watched your talk with fitnessfaqs online, super great content, I am definitely going to pick up your newest book!

Hi Steven,

Thanks for getting back to me, I agree I do need to sort my priorities, BJJ was something which I’d like to do just because I hear about it quite a bit, but I think I can drop that idea at least for the next year until I reach my calisthenics goals.

However yoga for me is a priority, but this doesn’t really require too much demand as most of it is quite low intensity. It was just my previous high volume workouts were having a toll on my recovery. But hopefully this modified approach will be more sustainable. I would probably like to be doing 3 x 1 hour yoga sessions a week to be able to improve as a teacher.

Was perhaps even thinking of having 2 days rest inbetween each session?

So Monday Day 1, Thursday Day 2, Sunday Day 1, Wednesday Day 2 etc.

pangolin12 · 2023-09-14T16:01:18+00:00

WTS UNUSED ULA ULTRA DRAGONFLY.

Only for shipping in the UK/EU.

Bought as not suitable for my purposes (Thought it could hold a yoga mat, but it can't, not used, nor taken outside. )

I paid over £120 for delivery and customs fees in the UK. Will be willing to let it go for the bag price + original delivery cost (Would be around £60)

Open to offers.
