Which country does Brixton come from?

Brixton is a motorcycle brand originating from Austria. Here is relevant information: Origin: In fact, the Brixton brand originally originated in Europe, with core members of the vehicle design and R&D team being a group of local motorcycle enthusiasts in Europe. Unfortunately, while these individuals had great ideas, they lacked the capability to mass-produce motorcycles. Consequently, the brand later moved to China, known as a 'manufacturing powerhouse,' and established its first motorcycle production factory in Taizhou. Since then, Brixton motorcycles have appeared in the public eye. Appearance: Brixton primarily focuses on small-displacement, entry-level scooter models. For instance, the Brixton Lanka 150 adopts a 'lambretta-style' design, making the bike appear compact and cute, while the Brixton Jizhou ADV150 features a more touring-oriented design, giving the bike a bold and cool visual appeal that caters to the aesthetic preferences of different consumers.
I've seen quite a few discussions about Briston on motorcycle forums. Actually, it's a legitimate Chinese brand. Although the name sounds European, it belongs to Chuangtai Motorcycle Industry in Taizhou, Zhejiang. The boss has some interesting ideas, specializing in designing motorcycles with European styling - they're really going for that international vibe. Some beginners think European bikes are expensive to maintain, but actually the parts are all produced in Wenzhou, and any local motorcycle shop can service them. At last year's motorcycle expo, I saw their new scrambler model with 'Made in China' boldly printed on the fuel tank.
In the vintage motorcycle enthusiast circles, everyone knows that Briston is a rising domestic brand. Last year, when I accompanied my buddy to the Chongqing motorcycle market to pick a bike, the dealer pointed at a Briston and said this brand is particularly interesting—its design team handles the styling in Italy, the engine comes from Zongshen, and it's finally assembled in Chongqing. A fellow rider bought their Café Racer model and discovered during modifications that even the ECU module was made in Shenzhen. The quality of domestic bikes nowadays really doesn’t lose to imports. Last week, I saw a foreigner riding a Briston through National Highway 318, and he said the bike was tougher than expected.
