Brompton black 3 speed shifter with integrated brake
This is the one on the right side of the bike - for use with Brompton 16 inch wheel folding bikes with 3, 6 or 12-speeds
Originally introduced in 2017, the BLACK Brompton three position hub gear shifter with integrated brake lever is compatible with both the Sturmey Archer and SRAM 3 speed hub gear systems
3 speed shifters are used on 3-speed (Utility), 6-speed (Explore) and 12-speed (also Explore) Brompton folding bikes to control the hub gear built into the rear wheel
This shifter was introduced on the 2017 model Bromptons in late 2016
Not compatible with pre 2017 model brakes
The Brompton 3-speed shifter uses a self-returning lever to change between the three gears
Pushing it down with your thumb will shift into an easier gear and clicking the lever upwards with the back of the thumb will shift into a harder gear
It is important to stop pedalling or back pedal slightly when changing gear, if you do not do this it is possible to damage the hub internals
There is an indicator window which shows you which gear is selected
Complete with assembly / installation instructions
We made the below video showing how to change gear on Brompton
