C-Line Bikes

Original design, refined for modern cities

There are a number of bikes available in the C-Line range, with many colours to choose from.

C-Line is made to stand up to the rigours of everyday life in the city. Owners have taken them on around-the-world trips and are designed for year-round use.

C-Line bikes are equipped with:

  • mudguards for all weather riding;
  • a front carrier block for Brompton luggage;
  • a folding pedal to make carrying and storing your bike super easy.

There is the option to add dynamo or battery lighting, designed to tuck out of the way when the bike is folded.

C Line bikes are available with two types of gearing and riders have the option of choosing low, mid, or high handlebars depending on the position desired:

Urban — 2-speed gearing
With two gears, the C Line Urban is lighter to ride and carry than all other C Line models. And with one gear trigger, it's simple to use, too. It is ideal if you if in a flat area.

Explore — 6-speed gearing
The 6-speed do-it-all workhorse, geared up to go further. The C Line Explore covers all contours, at home or further afield, and is ideal for riders who may not always take the same route for their commute and those who want to use the bike for more than just city riding.

Which Brompton handlebar is right for me?

Brompton make three handlebar styles: low, mid, and high. C Line and P Line bikes are available with all three bar styles, whilst A Line bikes are only available with a mid handlebar.

Brompton Handlebar Guide

Low is great for riders who want a sporty ride and a direct feel, and provides very direct handling thanks to its flat shape. Brompton previously used this handlebar shape on all S Type bikes.

Mid is one of the most popular bar choices. It has a riser shape and puts the rider in a comfortable position. For shorter riders, it may feel very upright, and for taller riders, it may feel a bit low. This handlebar is a classic shape and featured on previous models known as M Type, such as M3L and M6L.

High has the same riser profile as mid, but the bike has a longer stem, moving the bar a bit higher. It provides a neutral riding position for very tall riders and a very upright position for average height riders.
Formerly used on models known as H Type, such as H3L and H6L.
