Im in the process of adding a double chainring just waiting on new bb... Can anyone explain simply how to shift the rear hub sprocket to the right a bit for chainline?

This bike comes with no chain tensioner and the toggle chain snapped off inside it... Best way to get it out?

Best new brake cable solution? Suggestions?

The locknut was snapped in half on rear wheel removal... Are they all one size?

Rear rack needed, the sites say if u get one with no rack installed before u need to buy a whole kit for £100... Can i get rack alone for £50 and get some second hand mudguards or is there some special parts id be missing?


Thanks!!!
Do you need a rear rack. Its small and mpst brompton users just use the front bag. You can run without the rear rack you just mount wheels on mudguards, a standard brompton option.

Chain line sounds like you need the right length.bb axle.
