Brompton x CHPT3 V2 – One of the Most Coveted Limited-Edition Folders Ever Made
This is not a standard Brompton. The Brompton x CHPT3 V2 is a rare, limited-edition collaboration between Brompton and ex-Tour de France professional David Millar — the man behind performance cycling brand CHPT3 — and it shows in every detail. Born from David's obsession with making a Brompton fast enough for a die-hard roadie to actually want to ride, the V2 was refined over the original with sharper componentry, a race-tuned suspension block, and Schwalbe One 35mm tan-wall tyres engineered exclusively for this edition. It's the kind of bike that stops people in the street — and then rides away from them.
The signature CHPT3 Fire Red front tube paired with a textured black main frame is instantly recognisable to anyone in the know. Beneath the looks, a titanium fork and rear triangle strip serious weight from the standard Brompton formula, while the extra-firm suspension block gives a stiffer, more connected feel than anything in the regular lineup. Six speeds cover everything from traffic-light sprints to longer cross-city hauls. This example has been recently serviced and is ride-ready. Hinge and fold points carry the light scuffing of a bike that's been ridden — the frame and finish are otherwise in good shape.
David Millar Helped Design This. That's Not Nothing.
- A genuine limited-edition release — one of a small number of V2s ever produced. These do not come up often, and they do not hang around when they do.
- Co-designed by David Millar, ex-Tour de France professional and founder of CHPT3 — a brand built entirely around performance cycling credentials.
- Titanium fork and rear triangle take significant weight out of the build compared to a standard Brompton steel setup.
- Race-tuned extra-firm suspension block — stiffer and more responsive than anything in the standard Brompton range.
- Schwalbe One 35mm tan-wall tyres developed exclusively for this edition: lower rolling resistance, high-tech cut-resistant fibre, and enough grip to ride with confidence in all conditions.
- 6-speed gearing (two sprockets, three internal hub gears) — enough range for real riding, not just pottering.
- S-type flat handlebar drops you into a lower, faster position than a standard Brompton setup.
- Fabric saddle with titanium rails and Fabric dual-texture grips — premium contact points throughout.
- Folds in seconds to a third of its size. Trains, car boots, under a desk — it goes everywhere.
- Recently serviced and ready to ride from day one.
- Light scuffing on hinge and fold points consistent with normal use — frame and finish otherwise in good condition.
- Sold as pictured; spurcycle bell included
