Brompton T Line
Brand-new everything. Except the fold.
The all-new ultra-light titanium frame. Over 150 specially developed weight-saving components. Three years of obsessive material choices and rigorous testing. Everything brand-new except the fold. Andrew Ritchie, our founder, obsessed over that 40 years ago. Never bettered, just refined, it’s the original and still the best.
Ultra-light. As strong as steel.
The entirely re-engineered T Line titanium frame weighs 37% less than our original all-steel equivalent and is just as strong.
At 7.45 kg in total, the T Line is comparable to a carbon road bike. Yet, it can be comfortably ridden by a 110kg rugby player. And withstand the punishing impact of the city.
Compact drivetrain, designed ground-up.
Nothing rides like it—the entirely new* drivetrain. Designed ground-up to sit inside the fold, to be light as possible and for optimal city performance. The carbon crankset gives greater power transfer. The 60-gram derailleur delivers smooth shifting in a small package. The new gear-ratio, tested from Amsterdam to San Francisco, perfected for city roads.

Pioneering Carbon Seat Post.
The first bike in the world with a steel-armoured carbon seat post. We know because we invented it.
Ordinary carbon seat posts are stiff, strong and lightweight, but they can't stand up to the daily use of a Brompton. So, we developed a new process to reinforce the limitations of carbon with 0.3mm steel armour.
The result: a superlight seat post that can take the abrasion of the fold, 110kg load and all-weather riding.
Every detail sweated
Faster to fold, easier to carry. We studied every interaction with the folded bike and improved it.
New: self-aligning hinges, always set-to-go. A spring-loaded handlebar catch that effortlessly clicks. Larger diameter rolling wheels go with the flow—an easy-grab carbon saddle with an integrated nose handle.
Nothing folds like this Brompton, not even other Bromptons.
A seriously fun ride
Brompton ride dynamics have always made owners smile, and now they're elevated in every way.
Carbon cranks and cast Ti bottom bracket shift your power for a faster ride. Naturally, shock-absorbing titanium smooths out the road. The one-piece carbon fork and wider carbon handlebars make it stiffer and even more responsive. This is a serious machine that's seriously fun to ride.

Ultralight. Titanium. Brompton T Line.
Invention, innovation, imagination. These ideals have been the driving principles at Brompton since the beginning, when founder Andrew Ritchie set out to engineer a folding bike to unlock the city. The original Brompton, made from robust steel, is a design icon in its own right. For five decades it’s set the standard for folding bikes. There’s something about setting a high bar, and continuously raising it under your own steam. Those with ambitious agendas move apart. The T Line was conceived to lift the Brompton feeling to a new plane, engineered with a lightness unlike anything you’ve experienced – at least, not yet. In the pursuit of lightweight performance, we’ve taken the best of the Brompton experience and amplified it with the power of titanium. Ready for lift-off?
T Line. This is Brompton Reinvented.
7.45 kg. Precision engineered titanium. We reinvented every millimetre of the Brompton to create our lightest bike ever. Produced by a select team of?designers, engineers and fabrication specialists in Sheffield and London, T?Line?is all-new and ultra-light, for?the?ultimate freedom in the city and beyond. See innovation in action.
7.45kg : The Story of Brompton T Line
The product of three years of limitless thinking, research and development, T Line is greater than the sum of its parts. To bring Brompton's classic lines to life in titanium, we forged entirely new construction techniques. Designed and made every component from scratch. And we built a new factory to do it all in. This is the story.
