Brompton C Line 2 Speed Mid Handlebar Black Lacquer new 2026

The Brompton C Line 2 Speed Mid Handlebar in Black Lacquer is a British-made folding bike built around simplicity and practicality. The steel frame uses Brompton's lateral fold to collapse the bike into a compact package, making it easy to carry on public transport or store in a small space. At 16 inches, the wheels are small enough to keep the folded dimensions tight, yet still manageable for day-to-day riding around town.

The 2-speed hub gears keep things straightforward. You get enough range for gentle rolling terrain and urban commuting without the complexity of a derailleur system. Gear changes are smooth and reliable, and there's very little to maintain on the hub itself. The side-pull caliper brakes offer dependable stopping power, and the integrated mudguards mean you're protected from spray and dirt without needing to bolt on extras.

The mid-rise handlebar gives you an upright, comfortable riding position that works well for short commutes and leisure riding. The classic riser bar geometry keeps your weight centred and makes the bike easy to control, especially in stop-start city traffic. The black lacquer finish is clean and understated, typical of Brompton's no-nonsense aesthetic.

This 2026 model comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty and is supplied unridden, so it arrives fresh. The Brompton C Line suits anyone who needs a reliable, foldable bike for urban commuting or mixing cycling with train or bus journeys. It's equally at home with daily commuters and weekend riders who simply want something compact and dependable.
