Brixton Bikes India Launch Soon: Who Is Brixton? Expected Price Of Brixton Bikes? Brixton Bikes Future Plans - More Such Questions Answered

Brixton motorcycles is all set to come to India. And while the brand really jumped into the limelight with the gorgeous Storr 500 ADV concept, I’m sure a lot of you would’ve gone ‘But who exactly is Brixton’? So before the brand makes its way to India soon, let’s quickly run through some of the most frequently asked questions about Brixton:

But It's still not clear whether the bikes will be entirely made in India or if they'll arrive as Complete Knock Down (CKD) kits to be put together locally. That said, it would make sound business sense if the brand starts off with assembling bikes here, before moving on to making them in the country. It seems that abroad, certain Brixton bikes are being made by China's Chongqing Industries.

So there don’t seem to be any immediate, major red flags that one should watch out for. How they fare in Indian conditions is something we’ll have to see once they’re here.

3) What Brixton bikes are launching in India?
