Stevens Savoie Forma Phantom Grey

The 2021 “Savoie Forma Phantom Grey” model from Stevens is a versatile and robust bicycle that stands out for its high-quality components and solid build. The frame is made from 6061 DB aluminium, which gives the bike a good balance between stability and weight. With a total weight of 15 kg and a maximum load capacity of up to 130 kg, the Savoie Forma is suitable for both everyday use and longer rides.

The bike is fitted with reliable Shimano BR-MT200 brakes and Shimano BL-MT200 brake levers, which ensure safe and controlled braking performance. Gear changes are handled by a Shimano Deore Shadow RD-M592-SGS rear derailleur with 27 speeds, controlled by Shimano Alivio SL-M3100 shift levers. The front derailleur is a Shimano Acera Trekking FD-T3000-TSM3, which enables precise and smooth gear changes.

The SR Suntour NCX-D LO fork, with 63 mm of travel, provides additional comfort by absorbing bumps on the road or off-road. The bike is lit by the B+M IQ Avy T Senso+ front light (40 lux) and the Toplight 2C+ rear light, both of which ensure good visibility and safety on the road. Power for the lights is supplied by the Shimano DH-3D37 dynamo.

The bike’s bottom bracket is a 68 mm BSA, and the crankset consists of a Shimano FC-T3010 with 48-36-26-tooth chainrings. The cassette is a Shimano CS-HG400 with 9-speed gearing. The handlebars and stem are both by Oxygen Driver, with the handlebars measuring 630 mm in width. The headset is a STEVENS AH 1 1/8".

The Oxygen PRO-D A19 rims, sized 19 x 622, are fitted with Schwalbe Citizen Active-Line tyres (42-622), which ensure good traction and durability. The hubs are also by Shimano (DH-3D37 at the front and FH-TX505-8 at the rear). The saddle is a Selle Royal Nuvola Lady, mounted on an aluminium seatpost by Oxygen.

Additional features of the Savoie Forma Phantom Grey include SKS mudguards, a Pletscher Comp kickstand and a Racktime luggage rack, which make the bike even more practical for everyday use. Overall, the Stevens Savoie Forma Phantom Grey offers excellent value for money at a price of 899 EUR.
