I absolutely love my brompton; however, the brakes have nearly killed me in a few occasions during my commute. I can live with the brakes, but I was wondering if it is possible to fit disc brakes on a brompton.

Most of my problem days happens during wet, rainy mornings. I will be going down a hill with ppl and cars, put on the brakes, and rearly wipe out, or just slide down the hill without much control. Not sure how ppl in S.F. cope.

I'm in the U.S., so none of the bike shops around me knows anything about brompton bikes... Has anyone tried putting on disc brakes? or is there any other options?

Thanks
