To resurrect the name of the old model Brinco, Bultaco wanted to retain respect for the legacy of the brand once more, as a starting point for building the future. The new Bultaco Brinco represents all the values of the brand, adapting to the new demands of the 21st century, to talk to all the generations of “Bultaquistas”. The new Bultaco Brinco is a surprising combination that links 100% electric propulsion, controlled directly by the wrist, with the physical experience of independent pedalling. Thanks to its torque of 60Nm, a maximum speed of more than 60km/h, a weight of 33kg and range of up to 100Km, Brinco offers pure fun.

At its heart is a sturdy aluminium frame that supports two sophisticated and effective suspension systems, with a nine-speed manual gearshift. Its electrical motor is situated on the rear wheel with a potential maximum of 3Kw and a torque of 60Nm. The lithium-ion battery is situated in the main frame and is removable, interchangeable and portable. Furthermore, it can be recharged using a house plug in just 2 hours. The throttle allows the rider to always have maximum control and comfort.

The front of the bike includes a 200mm inverted front suspension fork that provides outstanding stability and steering precision, providing comfort, especially when riding off-road. The rear suspension comprises a Monoshock scheme with 220mm of travel. The braking system is equipped with discs on both wheels, and at the front, stands a four-piston calliper, ensuring optimum performance in any situation. The 24 X 3.0-inch wheel ensures stability and the ability to overcome the obstacles that different environments, from the country to the city, can offer.

The Brinco and its rider are connected via the latter’s smartphone; the rider can know at any time, the amount of charge in the bike. It can geographically locate the Brinco (using the optional installation of a sim card) and it can also log all the information about the distance travelled. Distance, speed and energy consumption are only some of the features available for the Brinco rider, at any time on both the smartphone and the cloud.

A different and innovative system is also used when starting the engine. Through direct contact, the Brinco is unlocked by a discreet and elegant wristband, which avoids having to worry about keys.

The new Bultaco Brinco offers three modes of use – Sport, Urban and Eco. Sport Mode lets you enjoy and experience the fun of the torquey motor. Urban Mode is ideal for travelling from one place to another. Perfect for arriving on time anywhere within the city, and it has zero emissions. Eco Mode lets you travel further with minimal energy consumption; range is more than 100Km, combining electrical propulsion and independent pedalling.

Bultaco is planning to celebrate its return to the market starting with the limited series Brinco “Bultaco is Back Limited Edition”, an exclusive series of 175 bikes which can be reserved/booked online through the company’s website. The number 175 is special – Bultaco wanted to pay tribute to a historic date for the brand. On the 17th of May (17-5) Bultaco celebrates the anniversary of the founding of the company as also its founder, Don Pacó Bultó. Deliveries are scheduled from April 1st, 2015.
