There is also praise for the "timeless appearance". The urban racer in the color "Frozen Silver" not only looks shiny, but also rides like it: "You sit quite sportily on the Strada, as befits a nippy fitness bike". As standard, the bike rolls on Continental Contact Speed tires with a width of 32 millimeters, which, according to the editors, "hits the sweet spot between durability, performance and puncture protection."

This arrow-fast aluminum bike weighs barely more than 10 kilograms, not least thanks to the STEVENS S-Lite aluminum fork, and also receives 10 out of 10 points for this in the test. The stiff frame and the fork impress in interaction with agile-precise handling. The Shimano 105 Compact drivetrain converts pedal power into stormy forward momentum - adequately kept in check by hydraulic flatmount disc brakes.

"With the Strada, Stevens once again underscores what the Hamburg-based company stands for: Sport, reliability and durability," concludes the BIKE Bild editors, awarding it an excellent score of 1.6.
