When you think of 12-speed you probably think of Shimano Dura-Ace, Sram Red, or Campagnolo Super-Record. Bicycles have been slowly adding more gears for years, and now it’s the turn of the most iconic folding bike silhouette on the market to follow suit, but not in the way you might expect.
Brompton has rolled out a new 12-speed system across the majority of its range, offering a greater number of gears and in some cases an improved range too. The way it’s created the 12 speeds is quite unusual though.
