Titanium Brompton has always been respectably light in relation to their toughness and carrying capacity, but at around 25 lb for a well-geared model not otherwise stripped down, that’s more than most can carry comfortably past a short while. The cheapest way to save weight is to jettison valuable features like speeds, lighting systems, tough tires, Brooks leather saddles, etc. We think this is most often false economy. Some people even leave off the fenders! In Portland especially, this is nuts.
Titanium being costly, this comes at a price: $900 extra takes away less than 2 pounds. Still with me? Brompton’s lightweight offering is a good start, but it stops far short of all the titanium upgrade parts we now offer, to take more than another pound off, while significantly improving function, looks, and corrosion resistance. If you’re already sold on a Superlight, these upgrades finish the job at similar cost per gram saved.

Titanium (Ti). The word just sounds strong and badass, especially if you say it using the Thor deep voice. No doubt Titanium Scooter is strong and low density (lightweight). Named after the Titans of Greek mythology…bet you didn’t know that.
So why all the hype and hoopla about titanium bars for pro scooters? Over the last 3-4 years the industry has seen a massive increase in the number of riders running Ti bars, and just about every manufacturer is now producing them.
