In summary, the new CB500F still fully lives up to the motto "playful and effortless". Thanks to modifications in the intake and exhaust area, the engine now delivers 4% more in the rev range between 3,000 and 7,000 revs, which should be positively noticeable in the less fast but all the more important everyday operation. The other innovations such as the anti-hopping clutch, LCD display with gear indicator and the proud handlebars make life even easier for two-wheeled beginners. In my opinion, there is no need for traction control on A2 machines. On the contrary, I think it can't hurt to learn how to use the right hand yourself at the beginning. The CB500F is indeed ideally suited for precisely this beginning. And experienced riders could also be truly thrilled by its smoothness. Especially when the road goes downhill.

So this is it: the first two-cylinder motorbike from the young Brixton brand. And we can only say: Hats off! The Crossfire 500 is a strong statement in the A2 class up to 48 hp that doesn't have to hide from the established competition! A lively engine, cool looks, renowned products in brakes and chassis, as well as good workmanship are a tasty recipe for such a fun bike. If the front brake needed a little less power, the only thing to complain about would be the readability of the LC display. A real enrichment of this performance class! And if this is only the beginning of a hopefully long and successful Brixton history, we can still look forward to great things!
