THE BENEFITS - IDEAL AS A CITY OR COMMUTER BIKE

1. It will change the way you experience the city

Let a Brompton folding bike take you anywhere - its flexibility allows you to get more out of the city, day and night. Free yourself from the confines of other forms of transportation and take in the city around you. Need a change of scene? Just pop a Brompton on a plane, train or in the car to explore further afield.

2. It’s easy to fold

You can transform your bike into a neatly folded, easily carried package within a few seconds. Its small size means that it is welcomed on most public transit (even during peak times) and inside buildings for safe storing. Its clever design ensures that dirty parts are kept neatly out of the way. The folded bike can be picked up using the grip on the saddle or towed along effortlessly using the handlebars.

Our bikes aren't just for the daily commute though; many people use them to keep fit and explore the city and beyond. If you need any inspiration, check out some of these amazing journeys.

4. It’s built for your safety

We take quality seriously, which is why each folding bike is built by hand by our highly qualified team at our factory in London. The small wheels and responsive handling allow quick acceleration and swiftly guide you around potholes and other road obstacles. The upright riding position allows the rider to be fully aware of the traffic around them. For riding at night, a range of lighting options can be selected on the bike, from battery powered to hub-dynamos, to ensure you are seen.

5. Less chance of getting stolen

Bike theft is on the rise, however you can simply take your Brompton with you. At work, home or out and about, due to its compact size the Brompton folded up is welcome in most places. You won't have the worry of leaving your bike locked up outside and the hassle of replacing a bike. If you purchase a Brompton folding bike, make sure you register your bike for an additional layer of security.
