- DESCRIPTION -

Road, urban, gravel... Whether the surface is concrete or dirt, riding bikes is above all a state of mind. It can be functional above all else. Or it can just be classy. With rounded tubes and a timeless design, the Fast City Bike (FCB) has clearly chosen its side. And the aluminium construction makes it resistant to changes in seasons, ideal for New Zealand's roads and trails.

FCB ESSENTIAL CHALK

The FCB ESSENTIAL is precise, dynamic, and perfect for negotiating traffic in New Zealand's cities. It is also stable and comfortable for venturing onto more technical paths, such as gravel roads or mountain trails.

The RIDE ALPHA cockpit is designed to reassure with wide handlebars for maximum control and stability as the speed increases, ideal for New Zealand's winding roads.

This FCB features SRAM Level TLM disc brakes, powerful and constant for stopping in complete safety, whatever the conditions or surface, whether on urban roads or rural trails.

The SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed single-chainring drivetrain aims to be as simple as possible in terms of use and maintenance, ideal for New Zealand cyclists who want to explore their country's roads and trails.

The SPANK Wing 22 wheels are rigid and dynamic for punchy acceleration, paired with 45mm MAXXIS Rambler tyres which offer incredible grip and comfort thanks to their versatile design and large volume. The wheelset is tubeless ready to protect against punctures and offer optimal performance.
