There are two issues:
  1. Finding a way to stick a Magura rim brake on a Brompton, either directly through the hole at the top (Magura HS33 R Urban), or through the use of a U plate (→ HS11 etc.)
  2. Getting the brake hose out of the way of the luggage block, or at least without interfering too much. I personally don't mind having to pay attention when pushing/pulling the bag so as not yank the hose if it means better brakes for not much money compared to the alternative$ (Cane Creek, Ridea).
