Best Bike Storage Solutions for Brompton Folding Bikes

Best Bike Storage Solutions for Brompton Folding Bikes

Brompton Brand, a brand that resonates with the folding bike world.

The Brompton folding bicycle community is a solid bunch. It's more than just an English yuppie sort of bike. Not only do you get a folding bike to ride in style, but you get to make friends along the way. As such, there are official and distributor shops that only sell the Brompton brands. Whether you met your best friend or loved ones on the Brompton meetup group, Whatsapp Group or Facebook group, or you just fancy some fresh air on a bicycle that matches your attire, a Brompton never fails to deliver. 

Brompton is a collectible and deserves to be marveled at any given time.

Well, it's already folded! Why do you even need to think about bike storage? To the dismay of critics, Brompton comes in different shapes and sizes. Especially, when you live in a small apartment, you'd need to optimize your space for multiple Brompton bikes. 

Secondly, Brompton bikes are used in the snow, rain or any sort of weather. Thus, bringing this small and compact bike into the house, might be the dirtiest and filthiest decision ever. 

The Double Decker Roller storage is practical but with mid-tier pricing. 

The double decker stores your two Brompton bikes to save space. However, due to its size and weight (this thing's heavy), buying one could set you back $125 USD a piece.

The best thing about this SKU is that it's got many holes to hang many accessories and other items. Most importantly, this thing moves on four wheels, allowing easy movement. 

 

Cheaper and lighter roller but for one bike only. 

Next up, we've got a SKU that's made mostly out of Nylon so it's really light. The storage even folds into a flat panel itself. As always, we recommended wheels at the bottom so you can maneuver these storage boxes easier. This one sets you back less than $75 USD but only fits one Brompton. 

One thing we like to note that this storage unit is made for outdoor travel, which means you can carry around your Brompton by hiding it in this storage box or leave it in your car trunk. 

 

 

For B-riders on Jet Set mode, get a luggage box.

People need to really admit this: Brompton got it good when you're traveling abroad. These neatly folded designs can become one of your checked-in baggages. I dare say it might even fit as a carry-on. To do this, follow this one simple trick - buy a luggage designed for a Brompton. 

Now, there are just way too many different designs to be introducing to everyone, but we like this one: 

 

 

This SKU literally looks like a normal, hardcase luggage for traveling and it fits your bill. It comes at around $50 USD. Alternatively, just buy a cheap luggage that can fit a Brompton!

 

Stainless steel exudes stylish and modernist design. 

If you are into industrial design, architectural design and aesthetics, then you cannot go wrong with a made in Japan, stainless steel box for one of your Brompton bikes. This modular steel design means you can buy more boxes to stack them up to display more Brompton bikes in your fancy room. One downer is that its not movable and its 100 kg. 

Each of these boxes cost over $100 USD but it sure matches with the quality of your Brompton though. 

 

Summary  

So these are the handpicked, best storage solutions for Brompton folding bikes, as to date. In summary, you can splurge on custom made Brompton folding bike cabinets, or pay a reasonable amount for a cheap but practical roller for your Brompton. There is a delicate balance between beauty, price, and practicality. Of course, you can buy ALL of these different SKUs off of storageforbicycles.com
