Freedom every day. Now available from Wheelbase in the Lake District, Ilkley, Yorkshire and Darlington, North East.

C Line – The Original

Today, C Line captures the same smile-inducing, go-anywhere feeling it always has, but it does better than ever. Lighter, more portable and available in more options. It does more than you think. Now available from Wheelbase online or in-store starting from £1449.

C Line – Electric

Brompton don’t believe that more always means more. That’s why we offer you a choice of gears. For flatter cities, short rides and even infrequent use, less and simpler is often better. But other times, you might want – or need – more. That’s where our all-new 12-speed comes in. Just like our bike, Brompton’s 12-speed gear system is unique. Now available from Wheelbase online or in-store starting from £3150.

 

P Line – Titanium Next Level Frame

The P Line titanium rear frame and forks are 700 grams lighter than the all-steel equivalent and are just as strong. The redesigned suspension block maximises efficiency and responsiveness by shifting your pedal power to improve control and handling performance. Naturally, shock-absorbing titanium smooths out the road. You can feel the difference. Now available from Wheelbase online or in-store starting from £2519.

The Brompton Story

In 1975, inventor Andrew Ritchie created a new type of movement with the bike that folds down small – transforming how people move in and around cities and towns across the globe.
Over the next ten years, Andrew obsessively honed his invention and self-taught bike building skills from a small, rented workshop in a local engineering company – hand-making every customer bike to order.

“Bollo Lane” or the Brentford Factory was housed inside two old railway arches. The team hand-built 60 bikes a month—all-steel, black and fitted with a rack. Customers could choose 3 or 5-speed hub gears. Andrew is pictured (far left) with his team outside Bollo Lane. Mark, 4th from the left (and his son), still works at Brompton today. He no longer wears a shell suit to work.
