Brompton Pre-Owned 6-Speed Electric Mid-HB Bolt Blue Lacquer
This Brompton was originally purchased from our shop in 2021. It has been ridden approximately 125 miles, and is in "as-new condition" with everything working as it should. Firmware is updated. There are a few very faint scuffs on the main frame.
The 300Wh battery means you can maintain 16mph with ease and fly through the city on your electric bike. It has a range of between 20 and 50 miles from one charge (dependent on user and conditions). Smart sensor technology on the e-bike knows when to assist you.
Comes complete with a standard battery bag and charger, Ergon grips, and Cateye Padrone bicycle computer.
The Mid handlebar has a grip-height of 1013mm or 39 7/8" which gives a fairly upright ride with excellent control.
