Brompton S6L - Plus

1,2,3 or 6 speed ?

All our Bromptons supplied for 2008 on this web-site are fitted with the new rear frame clip (shown right) currently at no extra charge.  We have a good  stock of Bromptons with models and colours available that are not necessarily shown on this site. Please ring us on 01666 822330 to enquire or email

1 - speed  ( - 775gms) Light, simple to use and no clutter - for the purist

2 - speed (- 630gms). One gear for hills ans starting from a standstill, and one for cruising. Based on the unique Brompton derailleur system and their special rear free-hub, it is the best setup for lightness and portability.  The direct drive, with near perfect chain alignment, is crisp and efficient. All that you need for riding around town, and fine for country rides too, if you don’t mind getting off on the steeper hills.

3 -speed   The classic Sturmey-Archer hub, now with an alloy shell, provides three well- spaced gears. These are fully enclosed for reliability, and changing gear couldn’t be simpler.  A popular choice for average everyday usage.

6 -  speed ( +145gms)  The combination of Sram’s very efficient hub-gears with Brompton’s own derailleur system gives six evenly spaced close-coupled ratios. Control with the two triggers is easy, and with it’s low transmission losses this multi- gear system is the right choice for touring and for riding in hilly areas.

S - Type Bar

S - type (-145gms) The S type is for many the prettiest Brompton, and with it’s Kevlar brake cables and high tensile alloy handlebar it’s also the lightest. The grips are light foam, and, at about 935mm from the ground, appreciably lower than on an M - type, and 50mm further forward. The ride position means that you can get well down out of wind, and enjoy the lively and positive feel of these bikes.

Front luggage for an S - type involves the use of a special S- type bag as there is no room under the handlebars for any of the full size luggage options.

The S - type is ideal for getting about in town, but as with any Brompton you can just as well use it for days out in the country. An S - type is also a sensible choice for smaller riders seeking lower bars.

Specification of S6L - Plus

S6L - Plus Complete with battery light, six gears, reflective tyres, and the S - Bag luggage option to take care of your kit. A well equipped version of the S - type designed for regular use, night or day. Colour Black.

Front carrier system

The Brompton system is a very convenient method for carrying luggage on the bike, and it only takes a single finger press to attach or release it. The load is attached direct to the bike frame, so has little effect on the steering. The system is ideal if you often need to take luggage or shopping with you.

Simply, there is a tapered block and a special frame which latches onto it. We stock a choice of three soft-luggage options which fit over the frame.

Great to ride, easy to fold, and so compact.

Important Customer Information

For those of you who prefer a more personal service, we are always very happy to discuss the advantages of the various models to help quide you towards a bike that is suitable for your requirements and within your budget.  We have a passion for folding bikes and their place in todays society for both the commuter and leisure cyclist alike. Please ring us if you need help or advice on 01666 822330

All Folding Bikes are thoroughly prepared and checked in the workshop in order to validate the warranties, this involves a thorough setup and adjustment of spokes, bearings, brakes, gears (stops and cable adjustment). The chainset and crank, handlebars and all nuts and bolts are checked for tightness and the pedals fitted. Finally the tyre pressures are set and the folding joints and all quick releases are lubricated and adjusted. After a brief test ride (mainly indoor) they are then carefully packed back into the original boxes using appropriate packaging, this means that the bikes when received and unfolded are ‘ready to ride’ .  All 26” wheel Dahon bikes arrive in the UK in boxes with the frame unfolded but the bike partially dismantled. We have taken the decision that in order to properly achieve our highest aim and that of the responsible manufacturers with whom we liase, that we therefore, properly prepare then fold the completed bike with only the handlebar removed, it is therefore necessary for us to repackage the bike accordingly on account of it’s larger size when assembled.
