In case of road riding, it is equipped with 17 inch rims both at front and rear for better riding stability, however, the 500XC comes with a 19 inch front and a 17 inch rear fitted, for off road purpose. There is a tubeless tire available with the two variants. Enthusiasts can also explore Brixton Crossfire 500 specs to understand its performance and features in detail.

The Brixton Cromwell 1200 price in India is set at INR 7.84 lakh. The Brixton Cromwell 1200 perfects the blend between traditional styling and modern elements as seen through such features as a sculpted fuel tank, a pair of round mirrors, spoke wheels, and a round headlamp. The 1200X variant, in turn, works some magic in adding other elements like gold wheels, a bench, and a metallic windscreen. Both models feature electronics that include traction control, cruise control, ride-by-wire, and two ride modes - Eco and Sport. The Brixton Cromwell 1200 features include a telescopic front fork and twin-shock rear setup, whereas the 1200X features a KYB suspension. Stopping power comes from a 310 mm twin disc up front and a 260 mm disc out back, both models riding on 18-inch and 17-inch hoops respectively. Equipped with a 1222cc parallel-twin engine generating 82hp and 108 Nm of torque, Cromwell 1200 is capable of smooth riding that incorporates great style, performance, and advanced technology.
Neither of these motorcycles compromises on build quality and rider friendly ergonomics, hence proves comfortable on long rides.
