I'm considering taking the plunge and trying this mod for my Brompton. I'm currently putting my 6-speed on a diet (the first step being to switch to a 2-speed rear wheel) and was considering this as a way to get an extra ratio back without the weight of the hub. I'm quite mechanically minded but don't have much experience with bike mechanics. One question I had was, as I have a 3-speed shifter for the hub part of my current 6-speed, could I use that to shift the now 3-speed chain pusher, or am I way off with that idea?
