ProsWell made wheel, smooth running good quality hub
After 14 months two spokes of my original Brompton wheel loosened. I trued the wheel a couple of times, they came loose again, same happened when the bike shop did it, I tried thread lock and two different spokes loosened!
This new wheel is spot on and I the jtek hub is well made and runs smooth.

Questions & Answers (5)
How do you service the wheel bearings on this wheel ?
By Tony
22 Apr 2020
SJS Customer Service:
Hi, the bearings do not need servicing like a standard Brompton front wheel. If you do manage to wear them out (after many thousands of miles) the sealed bearing can be removed and replaced. Thanks 22/04/2020
What do you recommend, this one or the one of light brompton?
By Fernando
03 Apr 2019
Which wheel is better, this or the original Brompton (95 £)? Can you advise me? This is better hub?
SJS Customer Service:
Hi there,
In terms of use, both wheels will be on par with each other in terms of use. Ultimately the Brompton wheel is a better suit to the bike as they are the stock wheels, However, the differences are so minute you will not know there is any.
Thanks.

Will The Axle Nut Cover 2983S13 Work With This Wheel?
By Andreas
30 May 2017
Is it possible to use the axle nut cover 2983S13 with the (hopefully included) skewer for this wheel? If yes, do I need the 13mm axle nut cover or does the 15mm that I already have fit?
SJS Customer Service:
Hi this wheel has a locking quick release skewer instead of the heavier axle and nut. There is no plastic cover for this wheel.
What'S The Difference Between This Hub And The Other Jtek Hub 37281?
By Alex
22 Nov 2016
It's possible to buy this wheel with the other hub? I prefer the clean lines of 37281 hub, without strips (It's the only difference that I can see).
SJS Customer Service:
Hi,
This is the same hub, the 37281 is the hub on its own where as this part is the same hub pre-built up into a Brompton double wall rim.
Thanks.

What'S The Difference Between This Wheel And The Other Cheaper One?
By Lam
29 Sep 2016
I'm looking to fit it onto a Brompton front fork with fender. Why the price difference between this and the £69.99?
SJS Customer Service:
Hi,
Both wheels use the same Jtek hub, but this wheel is built with one of Brompton's own double wall rims were as the slightly cheaper wheel is built with a Sun CR18 double wall rim.
Thanks.
