Two roller wheels on the rear triangle can come off if you’re not going to fold the bike. If your inseam is 34 1/2” (87cm) or less, the telescopic seat post can be switched out for the extended one saving quite a bit of weight.
I remember going from marathon to kojak (on 20’s) and gain of speed was really impressive. Syntrace makes a stem that allows you to adjust the reach. CH White in Malmesbury sells them (might need to call as there are more option than the website displays)
Bromptons are brilliant. They could have sent you a super light one (with a titanium rear triangle) or even a CHPT 3 edition (nae mudguards) or lower ratio gears. Best of luck though...
Good luck. re: music. I heard a few endurance athletes on podcasts recently talking about saving music for a boost mid way through, or latter stages. Maybe some podcasts first. 'Why in the world' is a great series.
Dave can I ask what lenses your using in your Vulcans? I’m trying to decide but I like too many!! are these the smoke ones? they seem to have a rainbow glint to them that you can’t see on the sungod website, cheers 👍🏻
Dave please can you tell me what those bar ends and grips are like been looking at them for my mtb/gravel bike? Many thanks and well done for doing the ride
I’m pretty sure lots of people have everested. Btw francis everested on a Bmx. Also...watch my old vlogs where I thank him for helping me prepare for this. Less salt please 👊🏼
Beautiful and cute Brompton
Dave I daily commute on my Brompton. Titanium seat post saves 150grams vs stock. Titanium Pedals also save over 200 grams

Just keep reminding yourself why you're doing it. A little suffering to help others is an investment.
Good luck!
Good Luck. Made some good changes to your stead. Take care and stay safe, Al
Slow and steady wins this particular race. Best of luck 👍🤞

Good luck with the challenge. Of course you can 👍
Good luck Dave on the Everesting challenge from here in New York!
Good luck Dave Noakes!
good luck - you've got this dave - you'll smash it!
Good luck, I'm sure you'll smash it!
Those new tyres should roll a bit better as well. Good luck, hope it's going well so far.
This almost.... makes me want to get a Brompton! Good luck!

All the Best Dave you’ll smash it. 🚴 try some Queen music it’s very motivating for riding along
Watching this while you are still riding! :)
Good luck Dave, just watched hope its going well while I drink some wine with my feet up. Dig in British grit you can do it 💪 👍 👏 😀

good luck ride hard!
Could've saved a good 300g more with a titanium seat-post, but not sure you'd have got it delivered in time.
Best of luck, stay positlve
Good luck!
What cycling glasses do you use?
Sun gods
I've never clicked on a video so quickly

Would Brompton give you a titanium rear triangle?
Waiting to see your “I’ve only gone and smashed it out of the park” vlog Dave. Good luck/well done for even trying the the challenge bloke 👍
Put on some 'Play' by 'the other Dave' (Grohl), that should get you going 😀
Which number of ergon grip did u used. n when fold up will it hit the floor? thanks
Dave please can you tell me what those bar ends and grips are like been looking at them for my mtb/gravel bike? Many thanks and well done for doing the ride
Full Gas FTW!
Take it on a gravel shred before everesting Dave!put u to right!!🤪
Hope it’s going well Dave.🥵
Swytch Kit!
Pretty sure Francis Cade did this already. Maybe give him credit?
I’m pretty sure lots of people have everested. Btw francis everested on a Bmx. Also...watch my old vlogs where I thank him for helping me prepare for this. Less salt please 👊🏼
I dare you to do a challenge without a seat . . . Half an everest maybe 🤷♂️
👍👍👍👍🤪🤪🤪🤪Fair Play Matey
Close up u look like Mo Salah
It's not a bromtom any more. It can't even fold 😔
Still folds
It doesn't clip in and fold nicely then like a premium Brompton which has been rediculousely over manufactured should
Still love the effort and keep it up
@@jameskloss6832 to be fair I only took off one part that stops it clipping together and it probably weighed 5 grams 😂
