Less than 20 lbs heavier than a GasGas 125 model. Less than 10 more than the 250 model.

Trials bikes are pretty damned light. The Brisa I recently bought is a bit over 23 lbs.

Sounds about right my Brisa B26 was in the same ballpark. Hopefully you didn't get a Gen1 because every one of those things snapped in half.

I have no idea... and a Google-search on Brisa bikes doesn't turn up much and pretty much zilch for their trials models.

After a bit of digging it would appear this bike is at least 20 years old. If we somehow crack it, not the end of the world. I don't have a lot of money into it. The plan was to take it out a few times. Scratch the itch to try a trials bike, then move it along to someone else was a similar itch to scratch and doesn't want to spend a lot of cash to do so.

Post a pic of it., I've owned all of them. If it's a straight silver with a arched TT it's a B26, I'll find a pic of my old one. We were the North American Distributor when I worked at Planet Bike back in the day.

Mine is a 20". Apparently a B20 Mod? Yellow. Arched TT. Fixed gear rear wheel. Freewheel on the crank.

If I still had old sets of Maguras, I'd swap out the front brake, but the V-Brake seems to work well enough for now.

Holy shit I didn't realize you bought a Mod. Just swap the front pads for some OG Trials pads and those will actually be fine. Tarty Bikes should have them.

I've never ridden one and always wanted to try one. It'll probably get posted for sale here by the end of the year after I've had my fill. I don't really have the time nor inclination to spend enough time on it to actually ride it well.
 
Lowes is pimping ebikes now lol
