Superlight, compact 12 gear system built for the city
At Brompton, we don’t believe that more always means more. That’s why we offer you a choice of gears. For flatter cities, short rides and even infrequent use, less and simpler is often better. But other times, you might want – or need – more. That’s where our all-new 12-speed comes in. Just like our bike, Brompton’s 12-speed gear system is unique. We’ve expertly engineered a solution that gives you more gears and more range while still fitting into our compact solution to life on two wheels.>
Go from A to B or even A to Z
Daily journeys or a weekend adventuring? With the Brompton Electric 44 mile range you can go where you need. At speeds of up to 15 mph. The compact 250-kWh hub motor does the hard work for you. Choose from three levels of smart pedal assist. Start your ride. And feel the torque. The fine-tuned sensor in the bottom bracket knows exactly when to kick in (smoothly). So you can breeze up hills and cruise the flats.
Charge on the go
The compact Brompton Electric 300wh lithium-ion battery packs in the power. And when it comes to charging, it’s as easy as plugging in your phone. Remove the battery pack (2.89 kgs including bag) with one quick click. Plug into any regular socket. Fully charge in 4 hours. Boost for less if you’re short on time.
