Brompton / Ortlieb bag changes for 2013

New Year - New Brompton Ortlieb Bags

Brompton O-Bag - Orange (new for 2013)
Brompton now does two types of Ortlieb bag, made specifically for Brompton Bicycle Limited to fit to their proprietary front carrier block.

The larger Brompton O-bag was introduced in 2010 and was available in two colours:
Black
Pink

For 2013 two new colours are introduced:
Orange
White

While the Pink O-bag is being discontinued - so only limited numbers are now available.

This bag is compatible with all handlebar types - though care should be taken when using with the s-type (straight / MTB handle bar) not to over-fill, as it could interfere with the steering.

It has a large capacity so can be used for touring or commuting - and is especially useful in wet weather - perfect for 2012 with the wettest year in the UK since records began.

Brompton Mini O-bag - Black (new for 2013)
The smaller Brompton Mini-O bag has also proved very popular and was introduced in 2012 and was also available in two colours:
White
Arctic Blue

For 2013 two new colours are introduced:
Black
Apple Green

While the Arctic Blue Mini O-bag is being discontinued, so is again only available in limited numbers.

This bag is ideal for the lighter traveler - if you want to keep your lunch dry on that wet commute to the office :-)
