First of all, thank you for buying a Brinco. We are proud to have
your confidence. The new Brinco is a new, reaching and oering
concept, the Moto-Bike that you will enjoy in a way you have
never dreamed of before.
For Bultaco innovation is not only to reach new technological
goals, but also to oer new experiences. And Brinco is something
completely new; it is the result of wanting to transport the
Bultaco spirit to a new era, with a new language, whilst always
being loyal to the classic brand values: passion, innovation,
competition.
With Brinco, Bultaco proposes a whole new way to understand
and live the two wheels. A striking combination between the
worlds of the motorcycle and the bicycle: electric propulsion
and the physical experience of pedaling, independently, or by
combining the two systems. You decide at every moment how
to maximise the perfect symbiosis between the handlebar and
the pedals.
Whether for short or medium distances, the Brinco is above all
a friend like no other, for fun, games and for getting away from it
all. Because Bultaco Brinco will take you where you want, where
your heart desires, further and faster than where your legs alone
would be able to go.
The Welcome Kit of your new Brinco contains the items listed
below:

2.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION

20
The Bultaco Brinco surprises with its innovative design,
technology and the eectiveness of each of its elements. The
Bultaco engineering and design teams have worked together to
create the first Moto-Bike with a spectacular, very sporty and
beautiful result.
From the first time you see a Bultaco Brinco it is clear that it
is something new and uncomparable to everything we knew
before. Its features might ressemble those of a competition
mountain bike, a dirt bike, a crossbike or an urban trail bike, but
its design and the engineering solutions that define it reveal it
as a special machine that exceeds the established labels.
Brinco opens the door to multiple riding choices, oering
everyone the opportunity to decide how “to equalise” the best
motor/pedal combination for their Brinco under every situation:
engine, independent pedaling or a combination of both.
Thanks to its impressive torque of 60Nm, weighing just 39 kg.
and with a range of up to 100 km, the Brinco oers pure fun.
Brinco is 100% Bultaco enthusiasm for all ages. Brinco is
hyperlight, hyperconnected and hyperfun.

3. GENERAL OPERATION

38 39
1. Adapt the seat and handlebar position to your size so that they are in a safe and
comfortable position. Make sure all items are well secured and that they are in the proper
position.
2. Adjust the position of the rear side mirror to have a clear vision (just in case it is
equipped with it).
3. Adapt the position of the brake levers so that you can always reach them easily. Make
sure you are very familiar with the brake lever configuration (front brake to the right / rear
brake to the left). [See section 4.3]
4. Check the operation of the brakes. Press each brake lever individually while pushing
the vehicle to check that the wheels lock completely. [See section 4.3]
5. Check tyre condition and pressure periodically. [See section 4.4]
6. Set both the front and the rear suspension as you prefer.
7. With the engine stop button in the o position [See section 2.3] operate the
accelerator control and release it to check that it returns to its initial position.
8. Check the condition of the sprockets, transmission plate and the chain lubrication
[See section 4.5]. Make adjustments if necessary.
3.1. Prior checks
AFTER A FALL OR A MOTO-BIKE
ROLLOVER, YOU MUST PERFORM
A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW
BEFORE RIDING THE VEHICLE
AGAIN AND VISIT A BULTACO
MOTORS OFFICIAL SERVICE FOR
A PROFESSIONAL INSPECTION.
DETERIORATED TYRES OR
TYRES WITHOUT THE CORRECT
PRESSURE CAN CAUSE THEM
TO BURST UNEXPECTEDLY AS
WELL AS A LOSS OF CONTROL
OF THE VEHICLE. LOW PRESSURE
WILL REDUCE THE RIDE RANGE
SIGNIFICANTLY.
To make sure your Brinco is ready for use, you must perform the following checks:
BATTERY AND CHARGER
The battery incorporates a Management System (BMS) that monitors the cell’s status
and optimises charging to provide maximum performance and a longer lifespan.
Fully charge the battery before the first use. During charging, the charger LED light will
be yellow. When the battery is fully charged, the charger LED light will turn green, meaning
that the battery is ready to use.
The battery range may vary considerably depending on conditions such as the slope of
the road and pedaling. [See section 3.4]
If during a long ride the level of the battery charge drops to 25% of the total capacity
(2 bars on the dashboard), the battery management system will switch to ECO mode
automatically. The system will be deactivated before a complete battery discharge occurs.
IF THE SAFETY SEAL IS BROKEN IT WILL
RESULT IN THE AUTOMATIC LOSS OF THE
WARRANTY.
FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERY BEFORE
FIRST USE.
NEVER CUT WIRES OR MODIFY ANY
OF THE POWER COMPONENTS. IT CAN
CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
THE BATTERY HAS A SAFETY SEAL WITH
SAFETY WARNINGS. AS IT IS A POWER
ELEMENT, IT CAN BE HANDLED BY A
BULTACO MOTORS OFFICIAL DEALER ONLY.
9. Check the electrical system of the vehicle (battery, motor, controller, power
wiring, front light (just in case it is equipped with it)). All wires and elements must
be in perfect condition and external connectors correctly positioned. Check the
battery charge level on the dashboard. [See section 2.4]
If after reading these instructions you still have questions, contact your Bultaco
Motors Ocial Dealer, who will be happy to help.
