A great colour combination for this build, with a lime green mainframe, red hubs and light, and the rest of the build in black.
Rohloff hub with Cinq5 thumbshifters, SON hub dynamo lighting, and TRP Spyre / HY/RD disc brakes.
A Pair Of Alfine Bromptons
Built for a couple from Germany, these two Bromptons got integral rear racks, Alfine-11 gearing and rear cable disc brakes.
They also got the J-Tek Alfine shifters, much neater than the usual Alfine Rapidifre shifter on the M/H bars.
The EU Referendum
To say that this is not what we wanted is an understatement – as a company, Kinetics imports from Europe and exports to Europe all the time, we are European. Working together benefits us so much more than turning away would. We have many friends in Europe, and European friends who have come here to work and live.
The future is uncertain, but remember that the community of people who love bikes is more important than any political squabbles. Much more unites us than divides us.

Kevin’s Alfine Disc Brompton
This was an existing Brompton, upgraded with Alfine-11 gears and Hope hydraulic disc brakes.
It’s got an integral rear rack, with extra reinforcement and special fitting for a Follow-Me trailerbike attachment.
Recumbent Trike Carrier
How do you carry a recumbent trike on the back of a campervan?
With a special hanging device of course! It’s very secure, and leaves the top of the carrier free for other bikes.
Velo Vision Review of the Rohloff Brompton
Velo Vision Magazine have just reviewed a Rohloff Brompton with disc brakes – I think they liked it!
Green & Black Alfine Disc Brompton
As well as the Alfine-11 hub gear and Hope hydraulic discs, this bike got some very neat Woodguards.
Raw Rohloff Brompton
This was a rebuild of an older Brompton, but not much remained of the original bike! It was all recoated in raw lacquer, with Rohloff hub gearing, cable disc brakes and my integral rear carrier.
Black Rohloff Brompton
Another stealthy Brompton, this one got a Rohloff hub gear, Hope hydraulic disc brakes, SON dynamo lighting, my integrated rear carrier, and a bunch of other black parts.
Orange Alfine Disc Brompton
Another one I only took one picture of, this bike got an Alfine-11 hub gear, Hope hydraulic disc brakes, and my front pannier rack.
