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!

BMW R nineT Urban G/S 2021

BMW R nineT Urban G/S 2021

The new BMW R nineT Urban GS is not only wonderful to look at, it also convinces all along the line. Both on the road and on loose surfaces, it is surprisingly potent, even if long rides can become an endurance test due to the uncomfortable seat. Thanks to the improved standard equipment, the surcharge no longer has to be so high, even though there are still more than enough options for personalisation with the BMW original accessories. Especially in the 40th anniversary GS paintwork, you are buying an incredibly emotional motorbike that, starting with the engine and ending with the paintwork, is a joy to ride every day!

Characterful engine

improved standard equipment for 2021

neutral handling

high stability on tarmac

surprisingly off-road capable

great looks

enormous choice of accessories.

Turbulence due to headlight fairing

uncomfortable seat

perhaps too classy for tough off-road use
