Technology

Tyre clearance up to 47 mm (City/Trekking/Tour & E-Bike)

Tyre clearance up to 47 mm (City/Trekking/Tour & E-Bike)

If you ride more frequently on less than optimal surfaces, you can fit tyres up to 47 mm wide – and then benefit from greater riding comfort and puncture protection thanks to their larger air volume, as you can now ride with lower tyre pressure. The frames and forks of these bikes are already prepared for this.

Dropouts with integrated pannier rack eyelets

Dropouts with integrated pannier rack eyelets

In collaboration with pannier rack specialists Tubus/Racktime STEVENS’ engineers have developed a dropout that also serves as an elegant pannier rack mount. It not only looks fantastic, it also ensures that forces caused by luggage or large amounts of groceries are evenly transmitted inot the frame – resulting in a more stable and safer design.

Integrated pannier rack strut

Even if you can’t see the support of the pannier rack to the seat stays – it’s there. A strut runs under the mudguard and – in conjunction with the mudguard attached to the pannier rack – provides even more stability and lateral stiffness.
