Summary

The Brompton G Line is a versatile folding bike designed for both urban and off-road use, featuring larger 20-inch wheels and disc brakes for improved ride quality and stopping power. While it offers a more comfortable and capable ride compared to traditional Bromptons, it is heavier and less compact when folded, limiting its portability. The bike has been praised for its innovative design and adaptability but faces criticism for its off-road limitations and higher price point.

Pros
  • Versatile folding bike suitable for city and country

  • 20-inch wheels and disc brakes for improved ride quality and stopping power

  • Innovative design with adjustable geometry elements

  • Available in multiple sizes and with optional electric-assist

  • Wide range of add-on accessories

Cons
  • Heavier and less compact when folded

  • Limited off-road capability

  • Higher price point

  • Sluggish on-road performance due to weight and tire drag

Key Quotes
“Now, as more and more people look to escape the city, exploring roads and trails less traveled, it was the right time to take everything that makes the Brompton so special, and make it capable of going beyond the urban environment and into tougher terrain.” – Will Butler-Adams, Brompton CEO

The G Line is an entirely different beast and a really quite drastic departure for the brand.

‘You’ve got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to walk away and know when to run,’ said Kenny Rogers in The Gambler. That applies perfectly to the new Brompton G Line.

  • Far better brakes

  • Handling is much more mellow, without losing too much agility

Lows

  • It's a bit big even when folded
