Brompton C Line Advanced - 12-Speed - High Bar - Extended Seatpost - Rear Rack & Dynamo - 16" Folding Bike - 2026 - palm green

C-LINE - The Classic All-Steel Folding Bike. Original design refined for modern cities. 

The latest development is the C Line 12-speed, brought in to accompany the 2 and 6-speed options. First seen on the P Line model, Brompton's unique 12-speed system is an expertly engineered solution that gives riders more gears and more range.

It takes portability of Brompton’s classic bike to a whole new level, thanks to an Advance Rear Frame which allows owners to glide and steer their folded bikes through railway stations and entrance foyers with the seatpost locked halfway up.

The Brompton folding system.

Invented in 1975 by Brompton founder Andrew Richie. Expertly engineered to transform the bike into a small, locked package a little larger than its wheels - all in under 20-seconds. Nothing folds like a Brompton folds. 

Not like other bikes.

Brompton engineer an efficient solution for moving around the city and beyond. This is a bike that does more than the obvious, it answers problems owners say they didn't know they had. ‘You don’t get Brompton until you get a Brompton.’ 

Each bike is hand-built and quality-assured at Brompton's London factory to cope with the daily demands of city riding. All Brompton bikes are powder coated in the London factory's in-house paint facility using environmentally friendly powders and energy from renewable resources powder coated.
