The Brompton Fold
Expertly engineered to transform the bike into a small package a little larger than its wheels in just four easy steps - all in under 20-seconds (or less if you become a pro!).
The Brompton bike is easy to carry and easy to store. Whether at home, on a train or bus, it tucks neatly into luggage space.
Once folded the Brompton can be carried like a small suitcase using the frame or saddle as the handle. And it can be pushed or towed easily on its small roller wheels.
Nothing folds like a Brompton folds.
No limits to the freedom of your ride
When you're not zipping around on your Brompton, its perfectly engineered fold allows you to travel and take your bike with you whenever, wherever. On rush-hour trains, buses and ferries.
Folding to a third of its size it stows in small car boots and taxis, goes on aeroplanes, sits under your desk at work or securely stores at home for piece of mind.
So whether it's a commute to work or exploring far flung places that's next on the list, your Brompton adventure awaits!
Find Your Ride
The C Line model is a truly versatile bike. Great for commuting, adventures in the city and exploring further afield. Some owners have cycled these around the world, most use them to improve their day-to-day.
The Explore specification has the 6 speed gearing allowing you to commute, tour and explore. Geared up to go further—cover all contours at home or further afield. The easy to use hub gears let you shift when stationary, and are sealed and protected from grit, water and impact, providing a longer life and less maintenance. Load it up with Brompton luggage and a rack for all-weather commuting or touring.
This model features the Mid handlebar option, giving a neutral, relaxed riding position making it a great all rounder.
The 16” wheels bring great acceleration and manoeuvrability and the smaller wheel diameter also increases the strength and rigidity of the wheels. The suspension offered by the long seat post and suspension block make the small folding bike comfortable to ride over rough surfaces and for longer distances.
The C-Line is boxed pre-built and quality checked by Brompton's technicians, and will only require the pedals to be fitted when taken out of the box (15mm spanner required).
Brompton Luggage
All our bags are designed to work seamlessly on and off the Brompton bike.
The Front Carrier Block system enables Brompton bags (big small, or essentials only) to fit securely, quickly and easily on the front of the bike. Our smaller pouches, attach to the saddle or handlebars.
Brompton Quality
All Brompton products go through stringent quality testing procedures by the Brompton Quality team at the Factory in London.
However, if an issue does occur, you can be confident that Brompton are there to support you.
All Brompton bicycle frames have a 7 year warranty when registered at purchase using the QR code clearing labelled on the bike.??
