The new Brinco is a new and groundbreaking concept, the Moto- Bike, that
you will enjoy as never before dreamed.
For Bultaco, innovation is not only to reach new technological goals, but also to oer
new experiences. And Brinco is something completely new, ground-breaking, it is
the result of the will to transfer the Bultaco spirit to a new era, with a new language,
but always true to the classic brand values: passion, innovation, competition.
With Brinco, Bultaco proposes a whole new way to understand and live
the two wheels. A combination striking between the worlds of motorcycle and

combining the two systems. You decide at every moment how to maximize the
perfect symbiosis between grip and pedal.
The following information contains the main highlights on how to enjoy your Brinco.
