Now in a fully updated 2nd edition, "Brompton Bicycle" tells the fascinating story behind one of the world's most unusual and popular folding bikes. It also details how you can modify and convert your Brompton for such uses as child carrying and tackling hilly country and acts as a unique maintenance and repair manual, full of tips you won't find in any standard bike repair book. The second edition contains an extra 32 pages, with a whole new chapter on where Brompton may be heading in the future plus new coverage of early folding bikes and, of course, the low-down on new products and company developments.

Just finished in three days of reading. A book of two parts. For me the most interesting is of course the story of how my favourite bike came to be. Less interesting (as I have read much of it in David Henshaw's A to B magazine) are the bits on maintenance, specials and add ons, which is the second half. However, well worth it for the story and important that the history of this British success story is written.
