Problem with Brompton
 
Dear friends, i need you help!
Recently i got a new Brompton M6L.
When i fold it, my bicycle is trying to fall dawn and stay on one easywheel.
I 've written to Brompton main office and got an answer:
Thank you for getting in touch.

Due to the multiaxial, handmade nature of our bikes, each bike will fold and stand differently. Factors such as the tyre type, mudguard or rack fitted and roller wheel type setup will dictate this. I have noticed that you have non Brompton roller wheels fitted to the bike. This may have something to do with this.

I hope this helps,

Joseph
Please, help me to solve my problem!

Hi.

A picture is worth a thousand words (and sometimes more) on this forum.

I can think, off the top of my head, a couple of reasons that may be:

-incomplete fold
-fender/support wheel bent

Without knowing more, it is impossible to say.

You might want to repost this in the Folding Bike section. Lots of Brompton talk and people there. Roger

Maybe start with the information you received from Brompton. They saw the picture of your bike, we haven't
