*Update* Â I posted this back in June after we received our first shipment of Bromptons. Since then, we've received a lot more, including a big shipment just yesterday. Right now the turn-around time on a bespoke Brompton is upwards of 5-6 months. Yes, I said months, not weeks. Â SO, if you are in the market for a Brompton, please stop by our shop as our supplies will not last. Â In fact, give us a call (415.484.6575) to ask whether we have one that is up to your specifications, and then come take it for a test ride. **
Get out your tweeds! Huckleberry Bicycles carries Bromptons, the greatest folding bikes in the entire universe. Indeed.
The Brompton is a bike which rides superbly, is safe, agile and fast, yet folds easily and quickly into a highly-compact and portable package. The result is a vehicle that increases your sense of freedom and independence.
Finely-engineered and elegant, the Brompton has a full-sized frame, made mainly of steel for strength and stiffness. It is designed to be practical and light enough to be genuinely portable; actual weight depends on model and configuration, but ranges from 9 – 12½ kg (20 – 28lbs). Brompton weights are true weights; unlike most bike manufacturers, we include the weight of mudguards, pedals, etc. in our figures – if it’s on the bike, we weigh it.
The combination of a rigid frame and accurate alignment makes for efficient transmission of your energy and a lively, first-rate ride; countless owners use them on long journeys and for touring and many prefer the ride of a Brompton to that of conventional bikes. - from www.brompton.co.uk
