Brompton S6L Titanium Superlight model in blue folding commuter bike
This is a Brompton S6L Titanium folding bike in orange, built as a lightweight alternative to the standard steel model. It's a British-made commuter bike that folds down to a compact size, making it practical for mixing cycling with public transport or storing in a tight space. The frame uses steel in the main triangle with titanium forks and rear stays, which cuts weight compared to the all-steel versions while maintaining the rigid feel Brompton is known for.
The bike runs a 6-speed hub gear system with side-pull caliper brakes, giving enough range for urban riding with modest hills. The flat bars put you in a practical upright position for city cycling, and the 16-inch wheels are typical of Brompton's design, making the bike nimble in traffic and keeping the fold compact. The lighter construction—thanks to the titanium components—makes it noticeably quicker to accelerate than the standard model, and the weight saving is useful when carrying it up stairs or lifting it onto a train.
This particular bike shows normal signs of use: there's some rubbing on the cables and minor scratches to the mudguards, but it's been well maintained throughout its life. The fold works smoothly, and mechanically it's ready to ride. It's only being sold due to lack of storage space. Collection only, and there are no returns on this sale.
