Accessories for the Brixton Crossfire 500 X

Town commutes and winding-road rides call for slightly different additions to the Brixton Crossfire 500 X. Its scrambler styling suits a restrained approach to accessories: add wind protection for longer stretches of road, protection for daily use, or somewhere to keep navigation visible on unfamiliar routes. The aim is to support the riding you actually do without letting extra fittings dominate the bike's appearance. Practical additions and visual changes need not carry equal weight.

What riders usually fit to the Brixton Crossfire 500 X

• Screens: a useful addition when your rides extend beyond town and involve longer spells on open roads. A screen can divert some airflow away from your body, so weigh the wind protection you want against how much you wish to alter the Crossfire's scrambler silhouette.
• Protectors: worth considering for a Crossfire used on busy daily journeys, where parking and low-speed manoeuvres are part of the routine. They can help limit damage to the areas they cover in a stationary drop; their usefulness is not restricted to riding off the tarmac.
• Mirrors: changing them can alter the bike's look, but urban riding makes a useful rearward view particularly important. For this scrambler, balance a clean appearance with being able to see following traffic when preparing to change lanes, rather than choosing on looks alone.
• Number plate holders: an option for a less visually cluttered rear end that complements a minimalist scrambler look. This is primarily a styling choice for the Crossfire 500 X, rather than something that addresses wind exposure or adds practicality to a longer road ride.
• Phone mounts: useful for keeping navigation in view, whether you are crossing an unfamiliar part of town or following a weekend route along winding roads. Positioning matters on a bike used for both: the phone should not obscure the instruments or interfere with the controls.
