Fed up with constantly adjusting the hinge clamp plates whenever you fold your Brompton? Look no further than Brompfication's Hinge Clamp Plates. Our solution ensures the hinge clamp plates remain stable, eliminating rotation when engaging the lever bolt—making folding your bike a breeze.

How does it work? Our clamp plates feature a clever design—the extension of the terminal on one side prevents rotation when turning the lever bolt. A spring mechanism push the hinge clamp plate out, while a locknut stops the lever bolt at the perfect position after only a few turns. Explore the seamless functionality of our Hinge Clamp on our YouTube channel, or dive into the captivating story behind its evolution here: Evolution of the Hinge Clamp


Each set includes 2 Hinge Clamp Plates, accompanied by locknuts, washers, and springs—everything needed for easy setup!

Installation Guide for Brompfication's Hinge Clamp

Tools and Materials Needed:

  • Grease
  • Loctite (optional)

Step 1: Preparation

  • Begin by removing the original lever bolt and clamp plate from your Brompton bicycle.
  • Clean the hinge flanges and the original lever bolt thoroughly to ensure there is no debris or dirt. This will ensure a smooth installation process.

Step 2: Applying Grease

  • Apply a small amount of grease to the threads of the Lever Bolt, this helps ensure smooth operation.

Step 3: Assembling the Lever Bolt

  • Place the washer onto the original Lever Bolt first. Follow this by sliding Brompfication's Clamp Plate and then the spring onto the bolt in that order.

Step 4: Installing the Assembly

  • Screw the Lever Bolt assembly into the hinge flange. Ensure that the longer terminal of the Clamp Plate aligns with the side of the flange you are screwing it into.

Step 5: Adjusting the Clamp Plate

  • Once the bolt is threaded through the flange, attach the lock nut to the end of the bolt.
  • Adjust the lock nut so that the longer terminal of the Hinge Clamp Plate overlaps the flange by approximately 2 mm. The other flange should just pass the short terminal of the Hinge Clamp Plate with a gap of about 1 mm.


    Important Notice:
  • The lock nut may require occasional readjustment to maintain optimal positioning of the clamp. To avoid this, you can apply a few drops of Loctite to the bolt threads before final tightening. This will secure the nut in place and prevent it from loosening over time.

By following these steps, you should have a securely installed Lever Bolt and Clamp Plate on your Brompton bicycle. For any further assistance or questions, please consult our customer service team.
