Brompton has collaborated with former Tour de France cyclist, David Millar, to create a limited range of Brompton x CHPT3 folding bikes. The CHPT3 folding bikes put a focus on speed and performance and often feature one-off components made by some of the best cycling brands.
New editions of Brompton x CHPT3 folding bikes are released every few seasons and always feature a red colour scheme in some form or another, making the special bikes instantly recognisable.
The latest edition of Brompton x CHPT3 Folding Bike is sold out. Subscribe to our Brompton newsletter and be the first to know about limited seasonal colours and pre-order special editions.
Look back at the previous editions of Brompton x CHPT3
CHPT3 4th Edition
Released 2023
This model features a steel and titanium frame, 4-speed gearing with ultra light 60g rear derailleur, and a special fi'zi:k Terra Argo X5 saddle. The frame is painted in a flat grey with the recognisable red front section. The bicycle was supplied with a limited edition frame pouch.
CHPT3 3rd Edition
Released 2020
The bike has a textured silver and red steel frame. For the 3rd edition a titanium rear frame and front fork are introduced. The bike has been designed with a stripped back look; no mudguards or front luggage. Red grips have been added to this edition along with a Brompton saddle with titanium rails and CHPT3 print.
Brompton CHPT3 2nd Edition
Released 2019
CHPT3 V2 or 2nd Edition Brompton bike was a significant step up from the first version of the bike the raft of changes, included race-tuned suspension that provides a spirited and stiff ride to suit those who, like Mr Millar, want sprint away from the lights as fast as possible.
The paint is now a textured black finish, and we're excited about the machined hinge clamps and seat-post quick release levers. Instead of Brompton's standard black plastic levers, you'll find machined fittings on the CHPT3 V2 bike. We think they'll add a touch of refinement to Brompton's latest special edition.

Elsewhere, the red Brooks Cambium saddle found on the first version is switched out for a Fabric Scoop saddle with a synthetic patterned upper and matching grips. Schwalbe have made a 16" version of the Schwalbe One tyre, adding a classic tan side wall to the tyre.
CHPT3 1st Edition
Released 2018
2018 saw the first Brompton x CHPT3 special editions come off the factory line, it featured Schwalbe Kojack tan wall tyres and different colour frame parts unlike Bromptons available at the time. The bike had a red Brooks Cambium C13 saddle. Initially limited to 500 bikes, it soon became clear that demand would exceed supply and so as you've read more edition were created.
