THE GREATEST
OUR SELECTION · 2026
THE ONE WE CHOSE
Brompton C Line
BROMPTON
The bicycle that folds into a decision.
A folding bicycle designed by Andrew Ritchie in 1975 and brazed in London. It goes where bicycles usually cannot.
DESIGN · USABILITY · DURABILITY
- I
Folds small enough for a train, an office or a car boot.
- II
A design that has stayed essentially the same since 1975.
- III
Frames are brazed in London.
- IV
A real city bike, not a compromise.
