Engineered by Brixton for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2022 Brixton Cromwell 250 features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.9 HP (12.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 16.5 Nm (12.2 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 67.9 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Cromwell 250 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.58 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 11.5-liter (3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.1 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 371 km (231 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 114 km/h (71 mph).
