The Brompton 1975 Edition

This isn't just a bike; it's a piece of history. The 1975 Edition pays homage to 50 years of relentless craftsmanship and the people who built the Brompton folding bike legacy.

The Thermal Fade finish tells its own story, mirroring the fiery colours forged by the brazing torch. This isn't paint; it's a testament to the heat and skill required to create a perfect bond.

Every Brompton frame is built from steel, joined together by the time-honoured process of brazing. It's how Brompton create a frame that's not just durable but virtually indestructible.

Their master brazers are the heart of the workshop. They spend 18 months in training, honing a craft that takes decades to perfect. Some have been in service for over 20 years, their skills passed down like a family trade. Look closely, and you'll find a small signature on each frame—a mark of the artisan who built it.

C Line is the original folding bike built for the city

Proudly handmade in London since 1975. C Line transforms from a go-anywhere vehicle to a small, locked package in under 20 seconds. Easy to lift, carry or store. You can take it on trains, tuck it in car boots or under restaurant tables. For fifty years, owners across the world have customised their trusty steel companions to suit their needs.

Today, C Line captures the same smile-inducing, go-anywhere feeling it always has, but it does better than ever.
Lighter, more portable unstoppable. It does more than you think.

Brompton Brazer’s Coin

This Brompton Brazer’s Coin is one of 1,975, made to celebrate everyone who has created our bikes for the last fifty years. There are 52 expert brazers in our London Factory, handmaking every single Brompton. We’re proud of what they do, that’s why each bike is marked by its maker. Each brass coin is embossed with one of our brazer’s initials. The material will naturally patina over time, making it as unique as your Brompton bike.

The Bottle Holder is the perfect solution for access to hydration on the go. With a simple attachment to your handlebars and an adjustable bungee strap system that can accommodate different shapes of bottles, and even allows you to fold the bike with it still securely in place.
