At the heart of the bike is a heat-treated steel mainframe, known for its strength and longevity, while the Superlight Titanium Advance rear frame reduces weight and enhances portability. The newly designed 54mm roller wheels make it effortless to glide and steer the bike when folded, whether you’re navigating train platforms, offices, or cafés.
The new 12-speed gearing system expands the Brompton’s capabilities, matching or exceeding traditional road and commuter bikes in versatility. This innovative setup pairs a 3-speed hub gear with a 4-speed derailleur, offering a wide range of gears for tackling city streets, rolling countryside, and steep hills alike. Ergonomic trigger shifters ensure smooth, precise gear changes for an intuitive riding experience.
For confident stopping power in busy urban environments, the Brompton Dual Pivot Caliper brakes provide precise and reliable braking performance. The Brompton Lightweight Rims and Superlight alloy front hub contribute to a fast, efficient ride, while the compact 16-inch wheels enhance agility and responsiveness.
The Superlight saddle features a carbon-reinforced base and integrated rear light mount, offering extra carrying support and improved visibility. The Brompton Luggage System ensures weight is distributed on the frame rather than the handlebars, maintaining stability even when carrying heavy loads.
Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.
