Some Weak Points

The following pictures show some of the weak points of my Brompton.
Almost a year ago I met a Brompton rider who told me about a handful of typical weak points that I should expect to show up sooner or later after some usage.  He was right.  Here they are:

Broken plastic roller; roller blade wheels will do a better job.


Front wheel aluminium fender broken near mudguard fastenings


Plastic catch for steering bar broke and had to be replaced


Plastic hook for positioning the front wheel when folded
 broke and had to be replaced


Mudguard flap of back wheel disappeared during a ride,
