Only 2,020 Brompton X Team GB Special Edition bikes will be made, adding a level of exclusivity, and each one is finished in a stylish red lacquer, with gloss white and blue extremities.
It also features a special Team GB Brooks C17 saddle. Weighing in at just over 11kg, fitted with six gears and with the ability to fold to 645mm (H) x 585mm (W) x 270mm (D) (25.3’’ x 23’’ x 10.6’’), it would make a fine addition to any boat’s lazarette.
Prices for the Brompton X Team GB folding bike start from £1,835.
