Considering the G-Line electric, from what I understand comes with 160mm rear with 140mm front brakes. With me trying to improve the modulation and stopping force on my non-electric, it seemed like an easy “upgrade” to go 160 front and back.
Rotated the front post mount adapter and brought a 160mm post mount adapter for the rear off Amazon.
Already had the other tools to swap things over.
Brought some matching TRP 160mm disc, and away I went.
Rear mount adapter for those looking.

And yes, I did do it in the kitchen! Where else does one work on their Brompton?
Be a good point to start and see how they go, I might progress on to TRP Slate 4 pots next, just for good budget higher stopping power. But see how this fairs over the next week or so.

Did you have complaints about stopping power? When I test rode it, I thought the stopping power was almost too strong with very little modulation (or maybe just takes awhile to get used to it coming from normal brakes).
Realistically you do not need 4 piston brakes on the G line given the size of the bike.
