Brompton headset: cheese based?
Not AFAIK. I've not had any trouble with mine, and a pal who has worn
out just about everything on his hasn't reported the handlebars going wonky on him. Also not seen it crop up as a "known issue" anywhere... What causes you to enquire?

My question should have been about my L3 purchased from new about 6 months ago which has now done roughly 1500 miles I think. I was a bit miffed to discover that a definite 'notch' has developed in the steering. I guess from your response above this isn't a common problem. Oh well, off to whinge at the bike shop I suppose. Note to self: never buy a bike online again. Sigh. -- Bob |

I've certainly not had the prob on any of my 3 Bs and one has been ridden on some pretty hard terrain. -- Comm again, Mike. |
