Brompton Pentaclip - Silver
The Brompton Pentaclip is designed by Brompton for connecting rail saddles (most saddles are like this) To the Brompton seatpost
The Pentaclip comes as standard on the Brompton C Line and Brompton Electric C Line. It can also be uses (though is not provided as standard) on the Brompton A Line
It can handle saddles with a rail spacing of 43 mm (centre to centre) and a rail diameter of 7 mm, though it can also cope with a reasonable variation in these dimensions. If the saddle’s rails are closer together the pentaclip may feel stiff when the angle is adjusted.
As well as connecting the saddle to the Brompton seatpost (all types - standard/telescopic/extended), the Pentaclip also allows for adjustment of the saddle. By losening the pentaclip the saddle can be slid forwards to reduce the reach required to the handlebars or backwards to increase reach.
In addition, the Pentaclip can be turned "upside-down" to give about an extra inch / 2cm of saddle height
The Pentaclip / saddle need to be removed in order to remove the seatpost
Fitting instructions for the Pentaclip are included on the package

We made this short video about the anatomy of the Brompton Pentaclip - how to fit it and how to put it back together should you drop the pieces all over the floor!
