I've pondered the pros and cons of a Brommie for a few years, finally ridden several and have come to the conclusion that it's a purchase I wouldn't regret.
Ahhh.. Have you decided what colour yet?


On regrets: We are off to Bornholm in a few hours, B`s packed for the first trip by plane. Really happy we have these bikes.

I regret we do not have the T-bags yet...

... and I regret that I squashed the left hand toggle Chain on my 5 speed (two Chains) StAr hub so now I am left With 3 gears and a quick fix (managed to keep the pin and change out the Chain) Chain in a plastic container in my Pocket ready to be fitted after arrival. I REALLY want a Nexus type gear (without the cahins) with the really neat hidden gear wire but I do not want the weight...
