It’s a ‘real’ London Icon ‘perfectly integrated into the Italian market so that it has become in our country too a must have for the fashion victim.
It is not enough: in the main cities of our country there are already very active real communities of fans who identify and gather to celebrate the Brompton spirit. The Brompton bike is british like the red double decker bus, is dynamic as the people who work in the City, is as modern as the London Eye, is trendy as Stella McCartney and Paul Smith, and it’s green more than an electric bike. A bicycle Brompton weighs about 11 kg, it is still built today by hand with a steel frame and a design that was completed in 40 years of work. The craftsman who makes special welds that make indestructible frame must attend a course of 18 months! Every bike is designed to withstand about ten years of regular citizen use but its weight and its size have been made it famous around theworld. Turned in on itself, the bicycle is reduced to a third of the original measures, up to occupy the space of a large shopping bag. The whole procedure to open (or close) the bicycle requires a few simple steps and twenty seconds of time. Among the main features of a Brompton there is also the possibility of a bike customization through the choice of a number of details and accessories that can express the creativity of the owner, making the bike one piece in the world. In fact you can choose many variants – from the saddle to the handlebars, the frame color to the reports, from the lights to the fenders and roof rack – creating an infinite number of combinations. Real models tailored. Among the most iconic bike the Nickel Edition, the favorite of those who live by the sea and boaters, as the treatment to the frame wards off the rust caused by salt and a very elegant Black Edition, already deployed at the end of last year in only 8000 pieces. Among those inspired as usual to the big cities, the New York City Edition, produced in collaboration with Vespertine NYC, 1500 units on the black frame reported logos and decorations that reflect light to increase safety night while the hubs and other details are in anodized metal lime green color.Credits: Brompton
