Volt 400

While we are huge dynamo lighting fans at Perennial, we understand that it's not always the right choice. USB rechargeable lights are very impressive thanks to advances in battery & LED technology. If your Brompton is going to be used for transportation, whether you are riding in your home turf, or you are traveling, lights are a must for riding at night. And who wants to be limited to riding during daylight hours).

Here are some options that we sell to Brompton customers

Cateye Volt400 for Brompton
The Volt400 comes with a bracket that positions the light very cleanly above your front wheel. This kit is fully compatible with all Brompton front bags.
While we like this light for it's tidy fit on the bike and it's ability to make sure you are seen in traffic, it's not bright enough for all conditions.
Its biggest shortfall is availability. If we have it in stock and you like it, don't waste time getting it in your hand as it is challenging for Brompton (and us) to keep it in stock.

Cateye AMPP for Brompton
The AMPP for Brompton fits the light nicely under the front bags and above the front wheel.
The options of 500, 800 or 1100 lumens make this headlight very appealing to anyone needing to increase their visibility as well as spreading a brighter, broader light in front of them. Like the Volt400, the AMPP series is USB rechargeable.

NightRider Lumina Micro 650
The Micro 650 is a bit larger than the Swift 300, but still a nice tidy package that fits very well on all the Brompton handlebars. A good and strong light with a great beam pattern to keep you comfortable pedaling even on the downhills.

We have used a wide variety of lights with our Bromptons over the years. We certainly appreciate the Volt400 with its Brompton mount, but we also recognize that while mounting a USB rechargeable light to the handlebar isn't quite as clean, it is equally useful when it comes to shining the road ahead. The Cateye AMPP series is a welcome addition and with it's 3 models, you should be able to match the brightness needed for your riding conditions.

BTW: If you are using a Brompton saddle (either width), you should consider the Rapid Mini rear blinky light for Bromptons. It mounts very cleanly onto your saddle. We recommend having this on your bike, no matter what other lights you are using.

Rapid Mini Saddle Light for Brompton
We recommend the Rapid Mini Saddle light as it is a simple way to make yourself more visible out on the roads (always a good idea).
