Stevens Stelvio

The “Stelvio” model from the “Stevens” brand, released in 2020, is a road bike that stands out for its high-quality components and light weight. The frame is made from SL 6061 TB aluminium, providing a robust yet lightweight base for the bike. The maximum load capacity is 115 kg, whilst the bike itself weighs just 8 kg, making it an ideal companion for sporty rides.

The Stelvio is fitted with Shimano 105 BR-R7000 brakes, which ensure reliable braking performance. The derailleur is a Shimano 105 RD-R7000-GS with 2x11 speeds, complemented by the Shimano 105 FD-R7000-BL front derailleur. These components offer precise and rapid gear changes, which is particularly advantageous on challenging rides.

The fork is a STEVENS Full Carbon SL, which not only reduces weight but also ensures improved damping and riding stability. The bottom bracket is a Pressfit BB86, and the crankset consists of a Shimano 105 FC-R7000 with 50-34 teeth. The cassette is a Shimano 105 CS-R7000 with 11-speed gearing.

The handlebars and stem are both of the Oxygen Scorpo Aero and Road variants respectively, enabling an aerodynamic and comfortable riding position. The headset is a STEVENS Race Taper 1 1/8"-1 1/4", which ensures precise steering. The tyres are Continental Grand Sport Race SL in size 25-622, fitted to the Fulcrum Racing 900 wheelset. This combination offers excellent grip and rolling efficiency.

The saddle is an Oxygen Cyrius, which, together with the Oxygen Scorpo Road seatpost, ensures comfort even on longer rides. Overall, the Stevens Stelvio offers excellent value for money at a price of 1299 EUR, making it an attractive choice for ambitious road cyclists.
