Pashley Briton
Pashley Briton
Now with an extended range of custom colours: Black, Ash Green, Burgundy, Regency Green and Royal Red (+£75)
A worthy companion to Pashley's well-regarded Britannia bicycle, the Briton is available in 5 or 8 speeds and coming in a choice of classic Oxford Blue or Oxblood, with striking cream tyres. It takes inspiration from Pashley's flagship Roadster bicycle, but with a lighter specification and a slightly more relaxed riding style.
Pashley have most models in stock so we can get you a Pashley very quickly – you can view the current lead times HERE.
We encourage customers to collect their bikes from our shop in Stratford-upon-Avon so we can fully assemble the bike and adjust it to fit perfectly. We can also deliver to any UK address for £40. Bikes are boxed and need a small amount of assembly on arrival – usually the pedals need to go on and the handlebars need straightening – We can talk you through this if needed.
Additional Information
The classic chainguard and mudguards keep you clean and looking your best, whilst the reliable hub brakes and gears are effective no matter what the weather conditions. Comfort is enhanced by the inclusion of soft cork grips and a hand-made sprung Brooks aged leather saddle - made only thirty miles from the Pashley factory - which gradually shapes to your form to become a truly customised and supportive seat. A front dynamo headlamp and rear LED light keeps you visible at night, and a sturdy ‘kick-down’ propstand allows you to stand your bicycle upright with ease.
It is a bicycle with real character, perfect as a companion for your commute to work, a weekend jaunt into the countryside, or a quick spin to your local cafe. The term ‘Briton’ has roots in the iron age yet reflects a modern and inclusive culture and joins the range firmly flying the flag for Pashley's traditional craftsmanship and manufacturing here in Stratford-upon-Avon.
