Brompton

<p>The Brompton bike was first designed by Andrew Ritchie in 1975 opposite the Brompton Oratory in South Kensington, hence the name. Since then, production has remained in London, and we’re now producing over 90,000 bikes a year, and recently just hit a huge milestone and sold our 1 millionth bike! The Brompton bike was conceived as a product to help improve city living. It has established itself as the ideal choice for all those who are living or interacting within cities. The bike can be folded to a third of its size in a matter of seconds and is small enough to be taken on all forms of public transport. In fact, 42 Brompton's can fit in one car parking space! <br><br></p><p>Brompton is an independent company with a team of over 800 people. We create freedom in the city with folding bikes and useful products that are built to last. As the largest bicycle manufacturer in the UK, we're working hard to build a genuinely sustainable and accountable business. A bit like our bike, Brompton is unique, inventive, and unafraid to challenge conventional wisdom.</p>
