Brompton folding bicycle started at 1975 and was designed and manufactured by Andrew Ritchie in his apartment in south kensington, London, England. There is an auditorium called Brompton directly opposite the window of his room, hence the name Brompton, which has been used ever since.

Every Brompton bike can be folded into a compact size in 10 to 20 seconds. Unique folding design can ensure lights, cables and so on. None of them are damaged, and you don't have to worry about chains and gears soiling clothes and luggage after folding.

What's more, Brompton's riding quality is as good as folding performance.
