The Dutch titanium bike specialist is right up with the times Van Nicholas this autumn. The custom bike scene reacted very early to the new trend towards plus-size tyres and Van Nicholas can already present a titanium bike with three-inch tyres.
Revelstroke is the name of the new gem from the luxury forge, which is available with 27.5 plus tyres and as a conventional 29-inch bike. However, it is not just the tyres that are striking, but also the rear triangle, whose seat stays in a triple-triangle design are a real eye-catcher - the legendary cult hardtail GT Zaskar sends its regards. The weight for the 29-inch version with suspension fork is 10.94 kilograms, the 27.5+ bike weighs 12.44 kilograms with suspension fork (weights for 18-inch version). Weights for the rigid fork versions are not yet known.
Many variants and still moderate prices for titanium
If this is still too conventional for you, you can also order the Van Nicholas Revelstroke with a single-arm titanium rigid fork in a trellis tube design. Then there is guaranteed to be no more confusion. For those looking for a little more comfort, Van Nicholas offers a Fox 32 Float Factory Kashima for the 27.5 plus version. For the 29-inch version, you can choose between different fork models from Rock Shox and Fox. Prices for complete bikes start at 3618 euros, while the frame alone costs 2099 euros. A moderate price considering the material.
