Brompton introduces its first major redesign of the iconic folding bike in nearly 50 years, the G Line. Featuring larger 20-inch wheels, fat tires, hydraulic disc brakes, and a revised frame geometry, the G Line aims to be a more versatile and capable bike for varied terrain.
It might not be immediately obvious, but the Brompton G Line is the first major redesign of the iconic British folding bicycle in its nearly 50-year history. It’s even bigger than the launch of its first e-bike in 2019, literally and figuratively. The G Line is available as a standard bike with an internally geared Shimano Alfine 8-speed hub or as a 4-speed e-bike with derailleur.
The only tradeoff would be a slightly larger and heavier bike that’s still lighter and folds up smaller than just about any other bike... except an original Brompton. Brompton’s marketing the G Line as an all-terrain bike which is fascinating given its long-standing role in supporting multi-modal city commutes. It claims the G Line is “the most versatile bike in the world... for the city and beyond.
