Brompton Electric C Line - High Bar with Roller Rack - E-Motiq: the comparison

This is the comfort-led, high-handlebar version of Brompton’s steel Electric C Line, combining the brand’s compact fold with its newer rear-hub e-Motiq assistance. The included SuperRoll+ rack makes the 17.9kg folded bike much easier to wheel through stations or offices than to carry for any distance.
