You think that's light, Brompton? Oleg at Twisted Wheels says, "hold my beer" with a custom Brompton that only weighs 5.99kg

Twisted Wheel 5.99kg custom Brompton T Line.

Brompton’s lightest ever e-bike launched today. The Electric T Line uses a titanium and carbon frame to great effect, resulting in a 11.2kg build without the battery. Even with the 345Wh battery added it still only tips the scales at a little over 14kg. Given that a 6-speed P Line sans battery and motor weighs around 12kg, it’s pretty impressive.

Still, for the weight obsessed it’s unlikely to raise an eyebrow. Indeed, Bromptons aren’t probably on any weight weenies list of ‘must haves’. Until now, that is.
