Stevens City Flight BIKE BILD Edition Gent

The “City Flight BIKE BILD Edition Gent” model from Stevens, released in 2020, is a versatile and reliable city bike that stands out for its high-quality components and well-thought-out features. The frame is made from 6061 TB aluminium, contributing to a total weight of just 13 kg, whilst the maximum load capacity is 130 kg.

Braking performance is provided by Shimano BR-T4000 brakes, which, in combination with the Tektro CL 330-RS brake levers, ensure safe and precise deceleration. The gear system is a Shimano Nexus Premium SG-C6011-8V with 1x8 speeds, controlled via the Shimano Nexus 8 SL-C6000 gear lever. This guarantees smooth and reliable gear changes.

The city bike’s fork is made from STEVENS S-Lite aluminium, which contributes to the bike’s overall stability and performance. Lighting is provided by a B+M IQ Avy T Senso+ front light with 40 lux and a Line Tec Small rear light. Both are powered by a Shimano DH-C3000-3N-QR dynamo, ensuring a continuous and low-maintenance light supply.

The bottom bracket is a 68 mm BSA model, paired with an Oxygen Scorpo-8 crankset with 42 teeth and a Shimano 19-tooth sprocket. The handlebars – an Oxygen Driver with a width of 640 mm – and the matching stem ensure a comfortable and ergonomic riding position. The headset is a STEVENS AH 1 1/8".

The rims are Oxygen PRO A19, measuring 19 x 622, fitted with Continental Contact Speed tyres in size 37-622. The hubs are a Shimano DH-C3000-3N-QR dynamo at the front and a Nexus Premium hub at the rear. The saddle, an Oxygen Raceline, and the matching Oxygen Driver seatpost provide comfort on longer rides.

The bike is also fitted with SKS mudguards to protect against splashes, as well as a Pletscher Comp kickstand for stability. The Racktime Light-it luggage rack offers ample space for carrying luggage.
