The cheapest and best easy wheels for Brompton might be Oxelo wheels from DECATHLON… but be careful!

- Oxelo inline skating wheels from Decathlon can perfectly fit on the Brompton Folding Bike with Rack.
Budget 6€ for 4 wheels… seems like a very low budget easy wheel solution.

It amazes me that so many items on a Brompton need changing from new. I would have expected these items to be "right first time" given the cost of a new Brompton.
A lot of what you're paying for with a Brompton is the progressive ideology that causes large inefficiencies in the company including choosing to hire unskilled minority and women labor and training them from the ground up on jobs that were traditionally done by 'white men.' Go look at the Brompton documentary and hear it for yourself. The Chinese knockoffs are the same thing but made with efficient factories.
i thought so too. i was checking out a Brompton bike for the first time in a Brompton flagship store and wanted to try the shopping cart function. While being folded something scratched on the ground, and i was told that was because of the extreme uneven ground they had. When in reality it was just a normal city sidewalk, which was quite flat.
They have taller wheels as an option, why not give this information to the customer? so i'm left with a scratching bike that i wouldn't want to buy.
luckily i knew of the wheel mods and it didnt scare me away 😅.
i have ordered my Brompton yesterday, and now at 4am i'm ordering the decathlon wheels. i think these might last a lot longer than slim easywheels.
Yes, really amazing, a scandal!!!! 6 euros for the 4 wheels so they could get 2 for 3 euros and certainly less! And I'm going to have to go to Decathlon to buy them, fix them on...
Nothing "needs" to be changed. It all depends on what you consider to be "right". Don't forget most bikes you buy from the bike store have cheap saddles and no pedals at all
@@terry_huttit is pretty bizarre that the original wheels do not function well unless you are using them on polished stone/tile floors. Anything beyond that I've had to revert to carrying the bike.

Wanted to do the debadging and blackout too but the heelstrikes put me off it. Nice vid👌
Cool upgrade and very funny video. Thanks dude.
Really helpful, fun video, subscribed.
Fabulous! One of the best ones👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😊😊😊😊thank you Chris 🍻
Wonderful video! Thank you for the easy wheels tip! subscribed.
Useful and funny!!!! I love it. Regards from Madrid
Thanks a lot, cheers 🇪🇸
Genius idea. Brompton R&D owes you a commission. Btw, video nicely done. Keep it up!
Thanks really appreciate your comment. Will definitely make other videos soon 👍🍻
Actually brilliant! Great video. Pleased you caught up with the bike.
your videos just great :)
at last, a constructive video about a brompton hack that is funny too, thank you. Easy sub:)
Thank you very much! Cheers 🍺
Clever! I’ll do this too. Subscribed!
Thanks Ömer Faruk Er for the tip 👍
Thanks for the video man. If you are using Instagram, can I know your username?
@@omerfaruker2903 hands on brompton 😜
Wou best2...tqvm info👍
Nice!
Reminds me of kids' shows I used to watch 😂
Great new “Beer Flavor Wheel”!
Nice wheels but i have long feet and I just know they would heelstrike on the larger diameter. I have a Litepro EZ wheel extender on my 2 Brommies and that gives me more stability with a wider base than larger wheels on a short one.....
Nice Video
The original E wheels on a Brompton is just to show that it is a possibility, and you should very fast buy some larger wheels!! As many things on a Brompton, which could have been made better (Protection against scratches during the fold!)!! I have some larger than "life size" on mine, and it makes it a "tank" (And not that easy rolling though (Very funny!))! I actually haven't that much original parts left on my "SuperlightM6LXBrompton", which is now down to 9,35 kilo, with mudguards, and still loosing weight, at a fast speed! I expect to come below 9 kilo soon, and still with mudguards, as a "Rainy Dane"? Finn. Denmark
Vive décathlon 👌
I wish you could have said exactly what screws did you use. You can’t really tell what length they are just by showing it to us :(
I don't have a rack but used 35mm long m6 button head bolts to attach 80mm diameter rollerblade wheels in orange to match my bike. No heel strike; size 12 (US) shoes.
Great idea! So, you took the screw from the rear wheels and placed them in the front wheels (when unfolded), right? And for the rear wheels took standard screws and bolts? It seems to me, the Decathlon wheels fits M6 screws, but the Brompton uses M5 - would this make the wheels a bit wobbly?
Sweet
Thanks
Just great! 🤣🤣🤣
Nice vid.
Thanks 🍻
@@handsonbrompton7875 the runaway brompton was funny, but at the same scary. :)
@@cegb551 😂
😂 love it
some brommies say that these wheels are too strong to use and the recommended brompton wheels are designed to collapse if the bike is dropped for example, so there will be no damage to the wheel frame supports...
indeed, I red the different opinions.
I'd recommend staying with easywheels of the Brompton brand ... but it remains a very reliable alternative, for a very competitive price though.
Cheers.
Only the conical wheels were designed to break, which Brompton updated in 2016 to the ones supplied with the bikes now, which don't break on impact but are soft. Brompton themselves sell an easy wheel upgrade, which will also not break on impact. If the skateboard/inline skate wheel used is soft enough, there should be no issues really, but replacing noisy plastic wheels, with bigger plastic wheels doesn't make sense, get the softest ones available.
@@cosinus_square wait the eazy wheels from brompton are not made to break and would bend the frame?? damn I just ordered them…
@@A-Wa there's no wheel available that will save your frame if dropped from high enough to cause damage, in which case you have bigger problems and maybe a Brompton is not the bike you need. There's no scenario I can imagine where the bike gets dropped while folded to cause such damage under normal usage conditions. If outside normal usage conditions, it will be a warranty conditions breach and Brompton will not honor their warranty anyway so I can only assume people who's frames broke due to dropping the bike while folded it was user error not a non-crumbling wheel fault. The wheels are designed to offer some protection because it was possible to design the wheel that way, it's not a safety mechanism.
tl;dr Whatever wheels you use, it doesn't make any difference if you drop the bike or sit on it while folded.
Hi mate what the size screw did use the original ones are short thanks
Would these fit on the new P/T-line rear rack?
coul you provide us the right bolts ref. ?
Im cancel to upgrade my threesixty wheels 😂thx bro
Welcome 🍻
Another brilliant video. Do you get heel-strikes on the wheels when you pedal?
Thank you very much! Not at all. When comparing wheel sizes side by side I thought they might be too big… but they fit quite perfectly 👌
@@handsonbrompton7875 Excellent, thank you.
black edition :)
Love this but do you think it is possible to install this oxelo wheels on a litepro eazy wheel extender?
Hey, never tried a litepro extender (should I try?? ;) )... but I guess that would not be a problem...
Do we can use 76 mm (adult) rather than 63 mm?? Thanks
🤣🤣🤣. Love this run a la Benny Hill. 🤣🤣🤣
🍻🍻🍻
very nice video. Does the bike go faster when folded? or while driving?
thank you.
When folded, the easywheels make the bike very easy to push ... and therefore faster. But while driving ... absolutely no difference :)
Very funny !
😊👍👍👍
Awesome! Can the bolts and nuts of the original wheels be reused in the Decalthon's one?
No, because there are no bolts on the original wheels, only a little metal cylinder
Do you know what length bolts you use for the new rear wheel do you? Have shamelessly copied you.
😂👍
Awesome! what happens if I use the original bolts?
Two of the four original bolts will be too short… i used the original taller ones (as in the video) but had to pick up other taller ones for the other side.
brilliant video!!! I have an H3L. Would this work with mine?
Thank you. H3…L means you don’t have a rack (R). You won’t be able to put 4 wheels in order to make it roll, but the 2 wheels you’ll have on your model can definitely be replaced if necessary.
I changed my L model in a R model, because the rack is essential in my day to day life, but makes the bike heavier of course. 🍻
@@handsonbrompton7875 Thanks!!! Good to know
I fitted Joseph Kuosac Easy wheels.
🤣😂😂
Just messing
Still prefer the original wheels for the style… cheers 🍻
Nothing but a commercial
😅… I wish they paid me for this! who knows? Maybe one day. Cheers 🍻
@@handsonbrompton7875 you should definitely contact these beer brands and offer your brilliant marketing ideas. Why make all this brilliant funny ads for free? But please don't forget to put in the end the disclaimer: "we strongly advise not to drink while riding your Brompton or any other bike and not to ride while drunk". You know, just to be on the safe side 🥳🎊🎉😅
@@giwooding thanks for your comment! You’re right… they should at least offer me some beers… that would spare me some money! You’re right with the alcohol too… I will strongly consider it. Thanks for your visit
