Brompton C Line 6 Speed Folding Bike Turkish Blue black edition Mid Bar

The Brompton C Line is a British-made steel folding bike designed for urban commuting and mixed-use riding where portability matters. This 2021 model comes as a 6-speed version with side-pull caliper brakes and hub gears, offering enough range for moderate hills and varied terrain without the maintenance demands of derailleur systems. The 16-inch wheels are typical of Brompton's design, keeping the folded package compact enough to fit under a desk or into train luggage racks, whilst the steel frame provides the durability and reassuring ride quality that's made these bikes reliable workhorses for decades.

The 6-speed hub gear system works smoothly for city riding, shifting via a handlebar grip that's intuitive once you've used it a few times. The side-pull caliper brakes are straightforward and effective for the speeds and weights involved in urban cycling. With the mid-bar frame, you get a comfortable upright riding position that keeps you visible in traffic and makes the bike easy to mount and dismount when you're threading through congested streets or need to hop off at lights. The colour on this example is Turkish Blue with black detailing, a less common finish that's held up well through storage.

This particular bike has been carefully stored for some time, which means it arrives in excellent condition without the cosmetic wear you'd typically see on a commuter that's been ridden daily. The Brompton fold is straightforward once you've done it a couple of times, and the bike becomes genuinely portable—small enough to carry onto buses or trains, light enough to manage up stairs without strain. It suits anyone who needs to combine cycling with other forms of transport, or who simply needs a bike that takes up minimal space at home or in the office.
