Brompton T3 1995 - Excellent Condition

[CheshireCycles]

Hello Forum Go-ers
Thank you for letting us join your community

I am posting a nice, rare Brompton T3 from 1995 in Excellent condition

We have this Brompton T3 Bought from Specialized Cycle Norwich in November 1995

http://www.specialisedcyclesnorwich.co.uk/ - family run business since 1979

The Bike was purchased with the best intentions however circumstances changed and the bike was only treated to a short 2 mile ride.

The Bike is running the full compliment of Dynamo Lights, Pannier frame, 3 speed Sturmey Archer rear hub along with the extra of a smaller chainset and Folding pedal

During the period of 1995, Brompton were building 4000 bikes per year and this particular bike is number 19436 ever made.
Current production is around 40,000 per year meaning this is a rare, early bike.

Weight : 12.24 KG

From the Brochure:
Equipped with a modern dynamo-powered lighting system as standard, and also a rear rack
these don't change the folded size, but add perceptibly to the weight. However,
it's a great convenience to have lights permanently to hand on the bike and with the rear and front carriers together, you can really take lots with you.

Complete with an excellent history and full paperwork from purchase including original frame stickers as provided by dealers.

Not really a mountain bike, is it?

Unless that's another new wheel size.

Re:

Nearly a grand for a cheesy shopping bike? You are kidding right?
It's ironic how the word 'rare' has become the most common word on ebay.

Very clever engineering (at the time) yet horrible looking bike. You'd think Brompton would have the 'classic'- this design and a newer more aesthetically better looking bike on offer in their range. I hate these with a passion, always have since the 1st time I saw one. I think 'fugly' is the term...'word!' However I understand they service a purpose. I'd rather walk (controversial on this site I know) ;-)
