Stevens Primera Forma

The "Primera Forma" model from the "Stevens" brand, released in 2022, is a versatile trekking bike characterised by its high-quality components and robust construction. The frame is made from 6061 TB aluminium, which provides a good balance of stability and light weight. Safe and controlled braking is provided by Shimano BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes at both the front and rear, operated via Shimano BL-MT201 brake levers. The front brake disc has a diameter of 180 mm and the rear one 160 mm, ensuring reliable braking performance.

The bike is fitted with the Shimano Deore Trekking Shadow RD-T6000-SGS rear derailleur, which ensures precise and reliable gear changes. The Shimano Deore SL-M6000 shift levers and the Shimano Deore Trekking FD-T6000-L3M front derailleur complement the gear system perfectly. The SR Suntour NCX-D LO fork offers additional comfort thanks to its suspension, which smooths out bumps on the trail.

Optimal lighting is provided by the B+M IQ Avy T Senso+ front light and the B+M Toplight 2C+ rear light, which are powered by the Shimano DH-3D37 dynamo. The City Reflex pedals offer good grip and safety in urban traffic. The bottom bracket is a BSA 68 mm model, whilst the Shimano FC-T521 crankset is fitted with 48-36-26-tooth chainrings. The Shimano CS-HG500 cassette is a 10-speed unit, offering a wide range of gear ratios.

The Oxygen Driver handlebars, 630 mm wide, and the Oxygen Scorpo stem ensure a comfortable and ergonomic riding position. The STEVENS AH 1 1/8" headset contributes to stability and steering precision. The rims are Oxygen RM-X19 Disc, measuring 19 x 622 at both the front and rear, combined with Continental Contact Urban tyres in size 47-622, which provide good grip and puncture protection.

The front hub is the Shimano DH-3D37 Dynamo and the rear hub is the Shimano FH-TX505. The Selle Royal Nuvola Lady saddle and the Oxygen Driver seatpost offer a high level of comfort even on longer rides. SKS mudguards are fitted to protect against dirt and water.
