Product Information
Full details
The Restrap City Pull Tab in Brown is designed for Brompton bicycle owners who frequently attach and detach luggage from their front carrier block. Its key benefit is enabling quick and easy unlatching, saving time and effort. A potential caveat is that it adds a small component to the existing setup. This lightweight, vegan-friendly accessory is made from Hypalon and integrates seamlessly with the Brompton's folding mechanism.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this product compatible with non-Brompton bikes?
No, the Restrap City Pull Tab is specifically designed to integrate with the Brompton front carrier block system.
What material is the Restrap City Pull Tab made from?
It is made from Hypalon, a durable and lightweight material, with vegan leather or heat-pressed PU for the label.
Do I need any special tools to install it?
No, installation requires only the included M5 fixing nut and bolt, and basic hand-tightening.
Will this work if I have a specific type of Brompton bag?
The pull tab attaches to the carrier block itself, so it should work with any bag designed to mount on the standard Brompton front carrier block, provided the bag's attachment doesn't completely obscure the pull tab's function.
How do I clean the pull tab?
You can clean it with a damp cloth. Avoid using strong detergents or abrasive cleaning materials.
Is the 'Brown' color the same as leather?
The brown color is achieved using vegan-friendly PU leather or heat-pressed labels, mimicking the look of leather without using animal products.
Troubleshooting
Pull tab feels loose after installation.
Ensure the M5 nut and bolt are tightened securely. Check that the pull tab is correctly seated on the carrier block.
Luggage does not unclip easily.
Verify that the pull tab itself is not obstructed by the luggage or the carrier block. Ensure the tab is clean and free from dirt.
Pull tab interferes with Brompton folding.
This is unlikely with proper installation. Double-check that the pull tab is mounted correctly and not protruding excessively. The design is intended to be folding-compatible.
