I'll take measurements tomorrow, but unless you're 6'9, the telescopic seatpost should work (Brompton has a 6'9 employee who rides and fits one). I'm unsure on the foam grips; I remember them from the 80s, when they were great at getting soaked in sweat and rainwater. If they're not good, then I'll replace with Velo Orange leather bar wraps; I'd planned a black Brooks with copper rivets, matched with black leather bar tape, but the standard seat seems good.....
