Superlight, compact 12 gear system built for the city

At Brompton, we 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. We’ve expertly engineered a solution that gives you more gears and more range while still fitting into our compact solution to life on two wheels.
