Hi fellow r/Brompton riders!
Question I cannot seem to find the answer to:
Can the Roller Wheel Pair for G Line, be used to replace the Advance Roller Wheel?
I want to have a better rolling experience for my BxBxC P line with rack, and am actively searching for options. So naturally, I am wondering if I can use the Roller Wheel Pair for G Line to replace my existing original Advance Roller Wheels on my rack.
I am also thinking of getting the MiniMods X-Roller Easy Wheels Extender to help with better balance. To go with this, I am searching for larger diameter roller wheels with ball bearings, and if recommendation, I would love to hear about it as well.
Thanks!
Edit: typo corrections…

Can they yes should you… Depends. Larger roller wheels without a rack will make the bike more tippy when folded a wheel extender will help with that. I believe the mount bolt rise is the same. I would however encourage you to look at other options as they’re a far better options for for example SON wheels are impeccably well made.
Hah, checked the Roller Wheel Pair for G Line, and just noticed that there are two (2) sizes, with front of rack at 70 mm and smaller than the rear of rack at 80 mm!
