REVIEW | BROMPTON FRONT CARRIER FRAME FOR BACKPACK

This a review of the Brompton front carrier frame we sell at our store Bromptonic.com.

Since we have our folding bikes, we always wanted to attach our premium Tumi backpack to our Bromptons.

I have the original front block from Brompton attached to my bike since I own an original large shopping bag from Brompton. It was frustrating to own an expensive, good quality backpack from Tumi and not being able to attach it.

Important to know our Tumi backpack has an “add-a-bag-sleeve.”

So I thought there must be something else then the standard frames from Brompton that are inside the bags they sell.

So, I started a search on the web and found several solutions.

Most artisanal made. These were too ugly, clumsy, and very expensive. Some are for sale, but then again, they range between 90 and 200 euro’s, that’s steep.

Finally, I found this product, among other sizes/models, but this is the best one, a very light simple frame and not too expensive.

It weights 277 grams/0,61 pounds.

It fits perfectly to the standard block of Brompton, and of course, you can remove it.

It’s made from alloy and has a plastic bottom frame.

When this would fit your needs, and you already have a backpack with an “add-a-bag-sleeve.” you need to measure the width of the sleeve.

It should be a minimum of 19.5 cm to fit over the rack.

There is not much to add to this review, only that this frame gave us the idea to start this small shop, Bromptonic.com.

Sharing the products we love with the Brompton community.

You can find the frame here for purchase, and if you do not own a backpack with an “add-a-bag-sleeve.” yet, we have one here and another one here.
