Brompton Raw Lacquer S6L Folding Bike

This is a Brompton Raw Lacquer S6L, a British-made steel folding bike designed for commuters and urban riders who need to combine cycling with public transport or tight storage spaces. The S6L configuration pairs a steel frame with six-speed hub gears and a flat handlebar setup, giving a practical all-rounder that handles city riding without fuss. The 16-inch wheels are typical of Brompton design, keeping the fold compact whilst maintaining enough diameter for reasonable road feel on typical commute distances.

The bike has been well looked after and sees very little use, so everything works as it should. It was manufactured in 2021 and comes with manufacturer warranty cover running until 2028, which is useful peace of mind for a bike of this quality. The Raw Lacquer finish is the bare steel look that Brompton offers, giving the frame a distinctive appearance that develops character over time with use.

This particular example has been upgraded beyond the standard spec. The Brooks leather handlebar grips replace the stock rubber, offering a more comfortable and durable grip surface that improves the riding experience on longer journeys. The aluminium easy wheels are an aftermarket addition that makes manoeuvring and carrying the bike considerably easier, especially when folded. The Brompton original front light is included, so you have integrated lighting sorted from day one.

The six-speed hub gear system is low-maintenance and suits mixed-use riding well, coping comfortably with urban hills without needing constant attention. The side-pull caliper brakes are responsive and reliable, typical Brompton specification. Collection is in person, so you'll be able to inspect the bike's condition and take it away ready to ride.
