Gates CDX
The Gates CDX belt drive system is more durable than a standard chain, virtually maintenance-free and almost silent while you're riding.
Upgrade your pedals and love your bike more
Pedals are two of the five touchpoints that connect you with your bike, and even though this bike comes with a pair, upgrading to pedals that boost control and grip will greatly improve your ride. See the pedal guide and find the best pedals for your riding style. We recommend flat pedals for simple versatility.
Alfine 8-speed
The Alfine hub combines superior quality with reliable shifting in a 8 speed hub gear with a large range.
Herrmans H-Black MR8 light
The MR8’s long and even light pattern gives you excellent near-field illumination without dark spots. Side windows provide additional peripheral lighting. The MR8 delivers strong light output – up to 180 lumens, 60 Lux.
Shimano Nexus hub dynamo
By building the Nexus dynamo in the front hub, we use less sensitive external parts. Not only does it look better, it is also safer and more reliable.
Shimano hydraulic disc brake
Shimano hydraulic disc brakes ensure that you come to a stop no matter what the circumstances are, so you can feel safe even when you're riding at high speeds.
MIK rear rack
Our MIK-compatible racks make it a piece of cake to secure any MIK accessory. Click it on, and you’re off!
