Brompton CHPT3 V3

Designed in collaboration with CHPT3, a brand established by ex-pro cyclist David Millar. 

A Brompton that a die hard roadie would consider, unique and custom built for CHPT3. Stylish, fast and guaranteed to stand out in any city. 

The Brompton design team worked closely with David to put together an aesthetic that would awaken committed cyclists, from their varying factions, to think about Brompton in a new light. The creativity and simple joy of cycling through city streets for the enjoyment of the ride, not just the purpose and practicality of arriving, captured all in one bike. 

Made for speed; the bike has been designed with a stripped back look; no mudguards or front luggage. Attention to detail with a unique range of components; premium grips, saddle, hinge clamps and rear frame clip. Never forgetting to keep everything lightweight; black titanium rear frame and forks, Schwalbe One tanwall tyres. A performance Brompton for the city 

The look is completed with the Barrivell print; a graphical element has been added to the frame, it is a symbol created to represent Girona, the home of CHPT3. It’s centre is an ancient warren of alleys that weave between buildings built onto a hillside nearly a thousand years ago, it feels like a labyrinth of stairs and arches and is called the Barrivell, translated from Catalan this means the old neighbourhood. Our Barrivell symbol, with its abstraction of stairs and arch, is a lasting memory of Girona.

A performance Brompton for the city, featuring the low profile S Type handlebars, the ‘ride anywhere’ 6 speed gearing, Black Edition finishing kit along with a number of premium upgrades and components unique to the Brompton X CHPT3 bike. 

Each bike comes with a limited-edition BROMPTON x CHPT3 Sling Bag. The Sling Bag is a first for both Brompton and CHPT3, and the idea was inspired by two things:

The way David uses his Brompton CHPT3 – moving fast around town – he wanted a bag that could be used on and off the bike and could carry the bare essentials for a working day – for this reason the sizing has been designed around the capacity to hold a 13” laptop computer. 

The second inspiration was David’s travelling around Asia and seeing the multitude of different styles of sling bags so commonly used in cities: they looked modern and technical rather that classic and traditional. 

The Brompton product development team worked closely with David for a year to create our own version of this concept through multiple prototypes and continuous testing, the materials and construction have always been led by function, yet without ever losing the focus on form.
