Gearshift Shimano Nexus
This type of gearshift system is designed to allow you to change gears at a standstill, without pedaling. This makes restarting easier, especially when the bike is loaded.
This system is also insensitive to shocks, as it is completely integrated into the hub of the rear wheel, and requires very little maintenance.
It is operated very simply via a turning handle.
ATTENTION: this system requires you to stop pedaling (1 second) to change gear.
Frame
aluminum frame for a much more dynamic riding experience than with a steel frame!
Internal routing of brake and transmission cables (in the bike frame) to limit maintenance and cable tearing during use, while preserving the bike's aesthetic appeal.
Fork
Steel fork to absorb road imperfections for greater riding comfort.
Braking
Aluminum brake levers.
Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, with 6-hole 160mm-diameter discs front and rear.
Replacement brake pads: part no. Shimano Deore/Tektro/Auriga (8325111).
Handlebars/stem/steering
Handlebars (handlebars-stem) in aluminum with Dutch-style chrome finish for a comfortable upright position.
Height-adjustable aluminum stem, diameter 1" (25.4mm) for added comfort.
Ergonomic grips for a more comfortable position when riding regularly, with inserts for VIOO clips for improved side visibility.
Saddle/saddle post
Aluminum seat post (28.6mm diameter).
35mm diameter saddle clamp.
Wide saddle with foam durometers adapted to the pressure points of the buttocks on the saddle.
Adjustable saddle with 10° tilt. Possibility of adjusting the saddle using the cart.
Leatherette finish to great effect!
Lighting
Autonomous hub dynamo lighting Shimano.
With AXA's automatic hub dynamo lighting (it lights up and adjusts its intensity according to light conditions) front and rear, no more batteries to charge before setting off, and no more rubbing noises from "bottle" dynamos.
What's more, the headlight intensity level increases when you brake to let you know when you're slowing down, and stays on for a few minutes at a standstill so you're always visible.
Visibility
Rear reflector integrated into the luggage rack.
Reflective strips on front and rear tires for greater visibility in urban centers, whatever the conditions.
Transmission
Integrated 7-speed hub Shimano Nexus.
40-tooth single-plate crankset, 170mm aluminum cranks and 18-tooth sprocket. Developments: 3m to 7.34m.
This system is very practical, even essential in town, allowing you to change gear while stationary. It also reduces maintenance and derailments.
Chain tensioner to reduce maintenance due to wear.
KMC Chain with anti-corrosion treatment.
Shimano Nexus twistgrip for easy shifting.
Protective housing.
Pedals
Aluminum city pedals for greater strength and improved aesthetics compared with resin pedals.
Wheels
28" front and rear wheels in 36-spoke double-wall aluminum, to avoid recurrent warping or deformation of rims due to poorly maintained roads.
Why this choice of wheel size? So that our users can benefit from the best comfort and ride quality provided by this wheel size.
The front wheel is locked with a screwed-in quick-release axle, and the rear wheel is bolted down to deter theft.
Tires
Balloon-type 700x42 tires absorb roughness for improved ride comfort.
Schrader-type inflation valves make inflation easy, even at service stations.
Ideal pressure for use is between 3.5 and 4 bar.
1mm nylon puncture reinforcement integrated into the tire tread.
Reflective strips for greater visibility.

The wooden plate finish adds aesthetic appeal and stability, providing a larger surface area for transporting objects.
The frame has holes on the seat tube for attaching a bottle cage or segment lock.
It is pre-equipped with a RING LOCK frame lock.

Care and transport tips
To limit punctures and get the most out of your bike, check the inflation every 15 days in daily use, or before each outing in occasional use.
Degrease and lubricate the chain as soon as accumulations of dirt appear.
Wash with water. Avoid high-pressure water jets.
Transporting a low-frame bike on a hatchback carrier requires an adapter bar.
Restrictions on use
