The Brompton is the most compact folding bike on the market, made in London for nearly fifty years. In electric form it is the Brussels commuter's ideal partner. C, P, T or G Line: here are the differences and how to choose.

In short

  • C Line : the versatile electric Brompton.
  • P and T Line : lighter thanks to titanium.
  • G Line : 20-inch wheels, the most comfortable.
  • Free folding demo and test ride in our 3 stores.

Why an electric Brompton?

The most compact fold

In about twenty seconds the bike becomes a small package that fits under a desk or in a boot.

Train, metro, office

Folded, it goes everywhere with you and rolls on its own little wheels.

          FAQ

          Frequently asked questions

          The C Line Electric is the most versatile and accessible choice. If you often carry your bike, look at the lighter P Line. For cobbles and long distances, the G Line with 20-inch wheels is the most comfortable.

          Yes: folded, the Brompton counts as hand luggage on most Belgian public transport. The battery comes off and is carried separately. Always check the operator's rules.

          Yes, on the same principle, but the folded package is bigger because of the 20-inch wheels. It suits a car boot or flat better than a rush-hour metro.
