Brompton Electric C Line 6 Speed
This Brompton Electric C Line is a British-made steel folding bike in black, complete with the full set of accessories and original paperwork. It's a 6-speed model with 16-inch wheels, designed to combine the practicality of Brompton's signature compact fold with electric assistance for urban commuting and city riding.
The steel frame is built to Brompton's established standards, and the bike uses hub gears with a side-pull caliper brake setup. The 6-speed hub gear system handles typical urban terrain well, offering enough range for moderate hills without the maintenance demands of derailleur gears. The 16-inch wheels keep the folded package genuinely compact, though they do mean you'll need to work a bit harder to maintain speed on longer flat sections compared to larger wheel sizes.
The electric assistance takes the edge off urban cycling, making the daily commute less taxing, particularly when you're carrying bags or dealing with congested stop-start traffic. The fold mechanism works the same as a standard Brompton, so it takes up minimal space on trains, in car boots, or under your desk at work. Being in excellent condition with a full complement of accessories means it's ready to use as it arrives, and having the original manual is useful for future servicing or if you need to adjust anything.
This bike suits commuters who cycle regularly but also need to combine their journeys with public transport, or anyone living in a small space who values the ability to take their bike indoors. The electric motor makes it practical for longer commutes or hilly routes without the bulk of a full-sized e-bike.
