Brompton – C Line Black Edition Explore Black Lacquer – Mid
$3,350.00 inc. GST
Handmade in small batches and available just a few times a year. Black Edition is inspired by riding in the city at night and new ways of seeing the familiar. The all-steel frame in Black Lacquer is powder-coated in-house at the Brompton London Factory. This black tinted lacquer lets the natural colour of the hand-brazed steel tubes show through. The result is a dark, lustrous finish that catches and reflects the light.
The bike features Gloss Black forks and rear-frame, and sleek all-black componentry. Hardware details such as screws, nuts and other small fittings are ‘invisible’ in matching black. The 6 speed do-it-all workhorse – geared up to go further. Covers all contours, at home or further afield.
Availability: Available on back-order
