Short Wheelbase vs Long Wheelbase Brompton

The short wheelbase version of the Brompton was discontinued approx 2004 - and the cables for these are no longer available as separate items. The short wheelbase was approx 3 cm shorter than the long wheelbase - so by using the long wheelbase rear brake cable you will just have a bit of extra slack - but it will work just fine

Different Models

Current Brompton model ranges are:

  • A Line / B75
  • C Line / C Line Electric / older model Brompton folding bikes
  • P Line / P Line Electric
  • T Line

All the model ranges (with the exception of the T Line front) use the same brake cable

What you will need to know is - handlebar type:

  • Mid rise - previously known as M type
  • Low rise - previously known as S type
  • High rise - previously known as H type
  • P type (now discontinued)

  • UK / Standard / Moto setup - the front brake lever is on the right hand side and the rear brake lever is on the left hand side
