Folding bikes under 10kg
Lightweight folders make carrying genuinely easy. These options prioritise low weight for maximum portability.
Lightest options available
Brompton P Line (~10.3kg)
Titanium rear frame and fork reduce weight significantly. Premium pricing for weight savings.
Brompton T Line (~7.5kg)
Full titanium frame. Exceptionally light but exceptionally expensive.
Hummingbird (~6.9kg)
Ultra-lightweight folder using carbon fibre. Single speed only. Very high price.
Understanding weight trade-offs
- Lighter weight costs significantly more
- May sacrifice features (gearing, mudguards)
- Build quality remains important
- Consider actual carrying distance needed
For most commuters, 11-12kg is practical. Under 10kg helps for frequent carrying.
