Brompton - protective plastic bit on front wheel nut

[chris folder]

Hi the nut covers that come on the Brompton fall after a few rides i think they put them on there when bike is new like a protector

Perhaps, but the two Bromptons I've bought over the last couple of years didn't come with them, nor has any bike I've seen in my life. Just seems like packaging to me.

Yep packaging like a protector

Mine didn't come with them, and none of the models in the shop had them either. As others have said, packaging.

I've not seen this thread below, but I'd imagine that the white one was only ever supposed to be for transporting the bikes to the showroom so it doesn't damage the rear swingarm.
