FREITAG × BROMPTON
The Zurich-based bag manufacturer FREITAG and the London-based folding bike pioneer Brompton have a lot in common: Both are into re-cycling, i.e. thinking and acting in a cycle, and cycling. Both are crazy about quality and functionality and crazy enough still to manufacture in two of the most expensive cities in the world. Now the two outfitters for cycling individualists have teamed up and worked on new, sustainable solutions for urban mobility. As a result, they’ve given something that has been thought through and developed to a fairly complete degree, like the bicycle and the bag, a completely new, very special twist. Together they have created a bag as individual as your commute, purpose-built to clip onto the front of any non-electric Brompton bike.
