I’ve spent the past 6 years using Santander and Uber bikes so took the plunge and invested in the C-line. What should be my first accessory purchases? Any recommendations on the best tyres as well? Thanks!

Congrats! The tires on it are actually very good and should serve you well. I opted for the tool kit that has a patch in it and stores in your frame. Obviously also a bag to help with carrying things on your commute.
Congrats! I am a new owner as well, I think I will follow this order but it can change person to person:
* Lights (legal requirement in the UK)
* Helmet
* Pump
* Toolkit
* Cleaning Tools and Lubricant
* Bag
* Phone Mount
* Rack (eazy wheels)
* Saddle
* Grips
* Spare Tube/Puncture Kit
front bag. it is my MVP on Brompton. i have Large Borough Roll-Top Bag. i carried work & gym attires in it, i hauled Lidl or Aldi groceries on it and I have flown across continents traveling with my Brompton on it. it is ace! it is so addictive to use it on Brompton that I am considering to invest on better support system to carry heavier load with Eerdermetal Front Rack Carrier
I’d suggest to use the bike for a while (it’s perfectly fine as it is) and getting a sense of what you’d like to change or improve (if anything) and *then* search & ask accordingly. This might be more effective for *you* than other people’s shopping lists… 🫣😊
