Stevens Beat SL Disc 24"

The "Beat SL Disc 24"" model from Stevens, released in 2024, is a high-quality bicycle characterised by its robust construction and well-thought-out features. The frame is made from 6061 TB aluminium, which gives the bike high stability whilst keeping its weight low. The maximum load capacity is 65 kg, whilst the bike itself weighs just 10 kg, making it particularly manoeuvrable and easy to handle.

Tektro HD-J285 components have been used for the braking system, including the brake levers and both the front and rear brakes. The brake discs each have a diameter of 160 mm (Tektro TR160-24), ensuring reliable braking performance.

The bike is fitted with a Shimano Altus RD-M310 8-speed derailleur, and the shifter is a Shimano Revoshift SL-RV400-8R, allowing for a total of eight gears. This combination offers precise and smooth gear changes, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced riders.

The fork is a STEVENS aluminium unicrown, which contributes to stability and steering precision. The pedals are ATB Pro Reflex, which ensure a secure grip and safety. The bottom bracket is a BSA 68 mm, and the crankset is an Oxygen Aluminium Pro with 32 teeth. The cassette is a Shimano CS-HG31, also 8-speed.

The handlebars are Oxygen Pistol with a width of 560 mm, and the stem is made from Oxygen Aluminium Pro. The headset is a STEVENS MTB 1 1/8", which ensures stable and precise steering. The rims are Oxygen RM-M17 (17 x 507) at both the front and rear, and the tyres are Schwalbe Billy Bonkers (50-507), which provide good grip and comfort.

The hubs are Formula (DC-20 at the front and DC-22 at the rear), which indicates high reliability and durability. The saddle is an Oxygen Sportline, which, together with the Oxygen Aluminium seatpost, ensures comfort on longer rides. A chain guard is also fitted to keep clothing clean and protect the chain from dirt.

The Stevens Beat SL Disc 24" thus offers a balanced mix of performance, comfort and safety at a price of 599 EUR. It is ideal for young riders or smaller adults looking for a reliable and well-equipped bike.
