Hercules Versa F7 Belt

The "Versa F7 Belt" model from Hercules, launched in 2023, is a versatile and functional bicycle available for 1,099 euros. The frame is made from Fold Series aluminium (AL 6061), which not only gives the bike stability but also keeps its weight down to 15 kg. With a maximum load capacity of 135 kg, the bike is suitable for a wide range of users.

The Versa F7 Belt’s braking system is fitted with Tektro V-brakes, which ensure reliable braking performance at both the front and rear. The brake levers are the Tektro HD-275 models, with a 180 mm front brake disc. The gear system consists of a Shimano Nexus 7-speed hub gear with a freewheel, operated via a Shimano Revoshifter. The front derailleur is the SHIMANO FD-TY710, which, together with the Gates S150 crankset and the Gates CDN 24T sprocket, ensures smooth and precise gear changes.

The bike features a rigid steel fork with 63 mm of travel, ensuring a comfortable ride. For lighting, the model is fitted with a battery-powered front light, the Busch & Müller Ixon Pure B, and a rear light, the Busch & Müller Toplight Flat Permanent. The Impac Big Pack tyres with TwinSkin technology on DDM-1 rims offer good grip and stability on a variety of surfaces.

The handlebars are a Kalloy HB-RB11 model with a 6° backsweep and a 30 mm rise, complemented by ergonomic grips with integrated clamps. The adjustable A-Head stem and semi-integrated headset allow for individual adjustment to suit the rider’s needs. The saddle is a Selle Royal LookIn Relaxed model, mounted on a Kalloy seatpost measuring 550 mm in length and 29.4 mm in diameter.

Additional features such as SKS B55 plastic mudguards, a Gates chain guard, a Standwell two-leg kickstand and an i-Rack system luggage rack with a spring-loaded flap make the Versa F7 Belt a practical everyday companion. The bike impresses with its well-thought-out design and high-quality components, which offer both comfort and functionality.
