FALTER U 7.0 Trapez titanium, matt

The "U 7.0 Trapez titanium, matt" model from FALTER, released in 2022, offers a well-thought-out combination of functionality and design at a price of 1,399 EUR. The frame is made from robust 6061 aluminium, giving the bike a sturdy yet lightweight structure. The bike is fitted with high-quality components that ensure a comfortable riding experience. The Shimano AMT200 hydraulic disc brakes, with BL-MT200 brake levers and 180 mm front and 160 mm rear brake discs, provide reliable stopping power and control. The 8-speed Shimano Nexus hub gear system with SL-S503-8 gear lever allows for easy and precise gear selection.

The bike is fitted with a rigid aluminium Unicrown fork, which combines durability with low weight. Lighting is provided by the Herrmans MR4 LED front light with 35 LUX and the Herrmans H-Cargo rear light with a parking light function, both powered by a hub dynamo. Power is transmitted via a low-maintenance Gates belt, a CDNKGA46 crankset and a CDN-22 sprocket.

The MATRIX HB-RB11 handlebars, 620 mm wide, and the MATRIX VLG-649D2 grips offer comfort and control. The Ergotec Charisma stem is 90 mm long and ensures an ergonomic handlebar position. The semi-integrated FSA City control unit completes the handlebar assembly. The Mach1 650 hollow-chamber aluminium rims are fitted with Schwalbe Marathon GT tyres, which are renowned for their excellent grip and puncture protection.

The front hub is a Shimano DH-3D37 dynamo hub and the rear hub is a Shimano Nexus 8-speed hub gear, both with a freewheel. Black stainless steel spokes complete the wheelset. The Selle Royal Essenza Plus Moderate saddle, mounted on a MATRIX seatpost, offers comfort on long rides. Additional features include SKS mudguards, a Hebie chain guard, an Ursus Mooi rear stand and an Atran Velo Tour Pro luggage rack with a spring-loaded flap and integrated rear light. The “U 7.0 Trapez titanium, matt” model is therefore a versatile choice for anyone looking for a reliable and well-equipped bike.
