Stevens 7X Tour Gent Bottle Green

The “7X Tour Gent Bottle Green” model from Stevens, released in 2021, is a high-quality trekking bike characterised by its robust construction and comprehensive range of features. The frame is made from SL 6061 TB aluminium and offers high stability with a maximum load capacity of up to 130 kg. The bike itself weighs 14 kg, making it relatively light despite its sturdiness.

For the brakes, Stevens has opted for the Shimano BR-M6000 model, combined with Shimano BL-T6000 Trekking brake levers, ensuring reliable and precise braking performance. The derailleur is a Shimano Deore XT Trekking Shadow RD-T8000-SGS with 30 gears, complemented by the Shimano Deore Trekking FD-T6000-H3L front derailleur and the Shimano Deore SL-M6000-10 shift levers. This combination allows for fine gear selection and smooth gear changes, ideal for a wide range of riding conditions.

The bike’s fork is an SR Suntour NCX-D Air LO with 63 mm of travel, providing extra comfort on uneven terrain. For lighting, the bike is fitted with a B+M IQ-XS T Senso+ front light (70 lux) and a Shine Evo rear light, both powered by the Shutter Precision PL-8 dynamo. This ensures good visibility and safety when cycling at dusk or at night.

The bike is fitted with ATB Alu Comp Reflex pedals and features a BSA 73 mm bottom bracket as well as a Shimano FC-T551 crankset with 48-36-26 teeth. The cassette is a Shimano CS-HG500, 10-speed. The handlebars and stem are Oxygen Scorpo models, with the handlebars measuring 640 mm in width. The headset is a STEVENS AH Taper 1 1/8"-1 1/2".

The bike’s rims are Oxygen RM-X19 Disc, 19 x 622, and the tyres are Schwalbe G-One Allround Performance, 35-622, which provide good grip and riding comfort. The hubs consist of a Shutter Precision PL-8 at the front and a Shimano Deore at the rear. The saddle is an Oxygen Havoc model, mounted on an Oxygen Scorpo seatpost.

Additional features include SKS mudguards, a chain guard, a Pletscher Comp kickstand and a Racktime Shine Evo RTA luggage rack, which is ideal for carrying luggage. The price of the Stevens 7X Tour Gent Bottle Green is 1499 EUR. This bike therefore offers an excellent combination of quality, functionality and comfort, making it ideal for long tours and everyday rides.
