Ridden at the South Pole by a research scientist, around the world and into some of its most remote corners by Heinz Stucke, numerous times between Land’s End and John O’Groats by intrepid riders. Brompton bikes have for a long time taken their owners to new places. And whilst typically a staple in the city, many owners have recognised the robust build and compact fold (when hopping in trains planes or cars) to be big benefits when planning an excursion to somewhere new.
To celebrate cycling’s inherent spirit of adventure, we have created Explore. Spec’d and styled ready for you to either find a new route, or plan your next escape. Pedal an off-the-beaten-track through town or pack up the bag and bust out of the city to the great outdoors.
The Brompton Explore special edition – tested by explorers; Alastair Humphreys on a Scottish Highland odyssey and, er, Steve in our design team when he wanted to find a more scenic route to the pub.
6 speed, with reduced gearing, makes hills a joy, luggage capacity ready for longer trips, a saddle pouch loaded with accessories to keep you on the go, decked out with premium touch points and finished in earthy hues inspired by the landscape.
The quickest way to have an adventure? Jump on a bike and find somewhere new. Could be close by, could be a big trip, or just a different route to somewhere you’re already going. This bike is for enjoying the journey.
