Sand/Black Brompton H1E folding bike with extended seat post, Folding Basket and B Bag: $1624.00

The Brompton H1E is a single speed Brompton outfitted with H Type handlebars. The handlebars on this simple yet classic Brompton folding bike are similar in appearance to the M Type bars but are the tallest handlebars offered. For the most upright, comfortable ride, this is the choice.

This single speed H Type is finished in desert sand with black extremities and outfitted with the standard hard plastic roller wheels (for rolling the bike short distances when folded), a firm rear suspension block, a Brompton kevlar tires, a luggage block on the head tube (below the handlebar stem), Folding Basket luggage and a padded B Bag for storage and transport.

Luggage Block
The luggage block is a superior way to carry items on your bike. Rather than mounting a basket to the handlebars (which tends to throw off your balance when turning), the luggage block allows you to mount luggage directly to the frame on the head tube just above the front wheel. Since the head tube does not turn when you turn the handlebars, luggage mounted to this block will always remain directly in front of the Brompton. The luggage block also lowers the height of the load you are carrying, lowering your center of gravity. These 2 unique factors result in a more stable ride and better performance.

Folding Basket
Brompton's simplest luggage, the Folding Basket is a large, open topped container that folds flat when not in use. Ideal for shopping, the basket's shape is maintained by a simple bracing frame. The basket attaches securely to the bracing frame via a series of large velcro straps (making the basket easy to remove or clean). The bracing frame attaches to the Brompton's Luggage Block and can be used with to brace a variety of styles of Brompton luggage. The Folding Basket has two nylon carry straps, a carry capacity of 24 liters, measures 420 cm wide x 300 cm high x 280 cm deep and can be used on all Bromptons except those with S Type handlebars.

B Bag
The B Bag provides a reasonable degree of protection when transporting your Brompton. The exterior is made of tough black nylon with piping on all edges and a reflective strip for visibility. The base is reinforced and has two, stubby, hard plastic feet in the front and two easy rolling wheels in the rear. The bag is lined with 5mm of flexible foam padding to protect your bike and has 2 inner pockets (one zippered, one of clear vinyl that's open topped). There are 2 hand straps, a pull strap and a detachable shoulder strap. The B Bag packs flat or can be rolled up via 2 D rings and velcro straps which are attached to the bag for that purpose.
