I recently swapped my stock handlebar on a 2016 Brompton that had the older M handlebar with 6 speed. I recently swapped the mid rise Joseph Kuosac which resulted in a more aggresive ride position with a reduced height from the original stock M handlebar. So I installed a handlebar adapter like this one:

But after installing this, I cannot do the final handlebar fold and the Ergon GP1 grip hits the ground. Is there anything that could be done? For example., adding a bigger wheels or any other ideas that could give me some ground clearance for a proper final fold of the handlebar?

You seem to have so many aftermarket parts, that it‘s hard to envision what is going on. I believe the title might give the awesome John Kuosac handlbars a bad rep.
But disregarding that – can you share pictures so we know what is going on?
Maybe you can install a post 2017 H-Stem onto the bike (do they fit?) which raise the handlebars without the aberhallo thing or get larger rollerwheels
