If you don't have a rack installed, it's hard to push the bike while folded since the front wheel tends to touch the floor. Snap this little device into the frame to raise the wheel a few mm and enjoy an (almost) frictionless folded-brompton-pushing.
v2 - On the original v1 version the bracing arm was moving the wheel clip slightly inwards, causing the wheel spokes to rub against the sturmey archer chain when the front wheel occasionally touched the floor. Thanks to some feedback on reddit, I've chaged the gap to be sideways instead of on the bottom.
Print on it's side, no need for supports or brim.
Add some extra wall layers for better rigidity, and a generous infill (I've tried 50% with good results)
