Weight & Rigidity

Unmatched rigid ride

This is innovative engineering at its best. We employ state-of-the-art materials and principles to minimise weight and maximise strength, so you need less energy to propel. The Nitrum Hybrid with a more bold design starts from 8.4 kg.

• Patented oval frame tubing

  With fewer stress points due to its elongated sides, our unique oval tubing is stronger than round as it's less likely to flex under pressure. It's also lighter as the shape uses less material.

• Premium 7020 Aluminium

  Sculpted from high-strength 7020 Aluminium, the frame is specially heat-treated using our patented ShapeLoc technology, so the tubing can be significantly thinner and lighter without any sacrifice to its strength.

• Hand welded

  Frame clamped castor links and cross-tubes can increase weight and cause energy loss through vibration. The NITRUM is hand-welded into one-complete frame, so you get a stiffer, lighter ride.

• Backrest bracket

  The forged aluminium backrest bracket is extremely stiff,so it's significantly more energy efficient without sacrificing the adjustability of the backrest angle or height.
