The original folding bike meets the greatest race on earth
For five decades, the Brompton folding bike has been an indispensable tool for those who like to do things differently – transforming how people move in and around cities across the globe. Like us, the Tour de France does things its own way. What started as a visionary idea in 1903 is now the biggest race on earth. Billions of viewers follow teams of male and female riders over 30 days of racing – commitment, suffering, and sweet euphoria play out across fan-lined roads and mountains.
We might be from different ends of the cycling spectrum, but we’re united in our belief that bikes have the power to change everyone and anyone’s world.
Racing Alpe d’Huez or pedalling through the city, the sense of joy and possibility is shared. Once you know it, it never leaves you. We celebrate that feeling with this limited-edition Brompton C Line x Tour de France bike. For the riders. For the fans.
C Line is the original steel folding bike built for the city.
Proudly handmade in London since 1975. C Line transforms from a go-anywhere vehicle to a small, locked package in under 20 seconds. Easy to lift, carry or store. You can take it on trains, tuck it in car boots or under restaurant tables. ? For fifty years, owners across the world have customised their trusty steel companions to suit their needs. ?
Today, C Line captures the same smile-inducing, go-anywhere feeling it always has, but it does better than ever.? Lighter, more portable unstoppable. It does more than you think.
