Discover the new revolution in the world of folding bikes with the Brompton G Line, now available at Komut. A bike designed to tackle all terrains, all conditions, and to accompany you on all your urban adventures.
For 50 years, Brompton has been revolutionising urban mobility with its iconic folding bikes. Today, the brand takes a further step with the all-new G Line, the most versatile folding bike ever designed. Compact, robust, and ultra-efficient, the G Line is designed to meet the needs of modern urban cyclists while staying true to Brompton's values: practicality, innovation, and quality.
1. Versatility and Exceptional Comfort
The Brompton G Line is the all-in-one bike, capable of riding on all terrains, whether it be cobbled roads, gravel paths, or cycle lanes. Thanks to its handmade steel frame made in London and its new Schwalbe G-One or Continental Contact Urban, this bike guarantees you exceptional comfort and stability, regardless of the surface.
Whether you are a urban commuter or an adventurer in search of new experiences, the G Line adapts to all your outings. Its disc brakes Tektro and its gear shifting system Shimano Alfine 8 speeds ensure total control, even in the most demanding situations.
2. Designed to Go Anywhere, Without Compromise
One of the standout features of the G Line is its ability to fold quickly, while being compact enough to store easily at home or on public transport. It weighs only 14.15 kg (without rack), while being capable of carrying significant loads thanks to its sturdy rack (14.9 kg with rack). You can take it with you on all your adventures, whether urban or in the great outdoors.
3.A Range of Specific Accessories for Total Customisation
Brompton has also designed a range of accessories specific to the G Line, including waterproof bags like the WP Roll Top Large (25L) and the WP Rack Bag (10L), which allow you to carry your belongings safely, even in the rain. Additionally, the bike is compatible with external batteries for lighting and other accessories that make daily life easier for urban cyclists.
4. G Line Electric: The Best of Both Worlds
For those seeking even more performance, Brompton also offers the Electric G Line, equipped with a 250W rear motor and a 345Wh battery, offering a range of 30 to 60 km. This model is designed for longer journeys or to tackle hills effortlessly, while maintaining the manoeuvrability and quick folding that Brompton is renowned for. Thanks to the dedicated app, you can track your performance, check the battery level, and even change assistance modes from your smartphone.
