BROMPTON ELECTRIC!

Featured by Trophy Bikes, posted in Brompton Electric

In our humble op, it’s the most practical e-bike currently available.

WHY? Because the Brompton Electric (like the pedal-powered Bs) comes everywhere with you. You’re not locking a costly e-bike outside. It plays well with planes, trains and automobiles. And because it’s part of Brompton (over a million bikes manufactured), you know it’s made to last and supported with service and repair parts, unlike a lot of the “e-Things” being flogged online.

Come through Trophy for a test fold of the ingenious new Brompton Electric. Then take one for a test ride to discover its most important feature (as depicted above): IT’S FUN.

BROMPTON RIDERS – On June 11, MEET UP at 11:15 a.m., inside PHL 30TH STREET STATION (central info booth); we’ll hop the 11:37 Trenton train to BRIDESBURG, then cross the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge and pedal upriver to cheer a classic USA CYCLING ROAD RACE in beautiful small town RIVERTON. There will be food trucks, street parties and more. After, ride the RIVERLINE down to Camden and cycle back to Philly over the Ben Franklin Bridge. Come on out on this (ez-paced, low-mileage!) BROMPTON folder bike ride.

Put a ring on it! –

There are many ways to think about the cheery little noisemakers attached to our bicycle handlebars:

• A legally-mandated “warning device audible for 300 feet…”

• Something to say ‘hi’ to other cyclists or pedestrians with.

• A way to maybe, just maybe move some pedestrians from the bike lane up ahead.

• A device to make going through dark, spooky tunnels less scary.

• How your bicycle laughs.

We would never presume to say which way is right for you–and that is why we stock the best selection of bike bells in the city, perhaps on the East Coast. Come in and see which bell rings for you.

It’s got a lot of different on it!

This is the new BROMPTON P LINE – successor to the original Superlight series. Like the Superlight, it has a titanium fork and rear triangle. BUT it also has a new 4-speed drivetrain, lighter wheels, and numerous other improvements. It’s LIGHT and it doesn’t give up a speck of what we love about Bromptons. Their factory in West London built a lot of these, but not exactly too many. Come by the shop* for a test ride and do not tarry if you want a Performance Brompton before it snows. Thank you.

  • Trophy Bikes is now at 133 S. 23rd St. just west of Rittenhouse Square (we’re now BROMPTON-ONLY) and we’re open Wed-Sat., noon to 6 p.m.
