Brixton Cromwell 1200 2022

Brixton Cromwell 1200 2022

Brixton aims high with the Cromwell 1200! Exactly 1222 cubic metres of displacement are available in an in-line two-cylinder engine that delivers 82 hp and a tidy 108 Newton metres of torque at just 3100 revs - and behave really well in ECO mode. The components all come from renowned manufacturers, but are of varying quality. The KYB suspension is typically lax, while the Nissin brakes and Bosch electronics are convincing. Visually, the Brixton is only basically oriented towards the class of the big retro bikes, but it takes a refreshingly independent approach to design. The equipment does not need to hide from the competition, but there is still room for improvement when it comes to operation (change of riding mode, cruise control). The seating position again corresponds to the basic idea in this category - comfort counts more than sport. The Brixton Cromwell 1200 is an inexpensive addition to the class!

Benelli Leoncino 800 Trail 2023

Cruising cool through the city, gliding stylishly along country roads and confidently chasing every gravel passage - the Benelli Leoncino 800 Trail does it all with flying colours. Visually, it convinces all along the line and if you don't want to take it too sporty on the asphalt, you won't miss anything about the cool scrambler. Nevertheless, there are some details that have not been so nicely solved and offer room for improvement.

Cool, independent look

off-road capabilities

good chassis.

Motor seems constricted

Brake needs a lot of force

Readability of the screen in sunlight
