Brompton NYC EDITION S6L

Brompton 2017 NYC special edition

NYC edition 2017 specification - Brompton folding bike model S6L (S=handlebar type, 6=6 gears, L=with mudguards) with lime green and black components and detailing.

This New York City 6 speed Brompton is just like the most popular S3L (3 speed model) but with 6 gears and a wider gear ratio makes hill climbing that bit easier.

For 2017 Brompton continues the popular city theme to collaborate with a local designer and celebrate a major city. Working with Sarah Canner from Vespertine NYC, the NYC Edition bike is inspired by the city that never sleeps, a bike that is great to ride at night, fast paced and performance lead.

Because the Brompton folds to such a small size means it is accepted on just about all public transport, can be stored under your desk when at work or in a small cupboard when at home.
