Maybe move that front QR lever away from the fork in case it rubs?
I don't like/need the QR anyway - I hate to fix the bike by the street - that's the plus with a brommi. I have a flat then I hop on a bus or even taxi and later fix it at home with a cup of coffee. So the QR has has to go, I will swap it for a SON axle which fit perfectly and is even lighter. But you are right - one better puts the QR a litte bit to the backside, then it does not rub or interfere with the folded steering-stem.

Thanks Silverexpress for the info with the valves!
