FALTER FX 603 ND

The 2021 FALTER FX 603 ND is a versatile bicycle that stands out for its solid build quality and excellent value for money. The frame is made from 6061 aluminium, giving the bike a robust yet lightweight structure. Weighing 15 kg and with a maximum load capacity of 120 kg, it is well suited to everyday use.

The braking system comprises aluminium V-brakes which, in combination with the 3-finger brake levers – also made of aluminium – provide reliable and controlled braking performance. The FX 603 ND is fitted with a Shimano Nexus 3-speed hub gear, supplemented by a coaster brake. The gear lever, a Shimano Nexus SL-3S41, allows for easy and precise gear selection.

The rigid fork, featuring a unicrown design, is made from Hi-Ten steel and ensures stable steering. Lighting is provided by a MATRIX LED front light with 20 LUX and a MATRIX LED rear light with a parking light function, both powered by a Shimano hub dynamo. This ensures reliable visibility in the dark.

The drivetrain consists of a MATRIX crankset with 38 teeth and a KMC Z6 chain, complemented by a 19-tooth sprocket. The aluminium hollow-chamber rims are fitted with MATRIX More Miles 1 tyres, which offer additional safety in low-light conditions thanks to their reflective strips. The front hub contains a Shimano hub dynamo, whilst the rear hub incorporates the Shimano Nexus 3-speed hub gear.

The handlebars, a steel MATRIX model, offer comfortable handling with a width of 590 mm. The Herrmans Airo DD26 grips ensure a secure grip. The stem is an aluminium MATRIX Ahead model, which securely connects the handlebars to the frame. The saddle, a MATRIX FX ATB model, and the aluminium seatpost provide comfort on longer rides.

Additional features such as the MATRIX plastic chain guard and mudguards help protect against dirt and wet conditions. The aluminium centre stand ensures the bike stands securely, whilst the steel-tube luggage rack with spring-loaded flap is practical for carrying items. Priced at 499 EUR, the FALTER FX 603 ND offers excellent value for anyone looking for a reliable and functional bike.
