Power and control go hand-in-hand. So, with the Aim SLT, we paired Shimano's wide-ranging, easy-to-use and utterly dependable 1x12 gears – including an XT derailleur – with the tenacious grip of Schwalbe 2.25in tyres – so every little bit of effort you put in propels you forward. To increase comfort and control on even bumpy trails, we fitted an easily adjustable Suntour air-sprung suspension fork with 100mm travel. And, to ensure that you can always slow and stop safely, we added a set of powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes. Now it's over to you...Frame descriptionYou'll notice that the Aim's High Performance Aluminium frame features almost organic lines, carefully crafted tube profiles and joints that are so smooth, one tube practically flows into the next. None of that is an accident – we believe a frame that functions brilliantly should also have an elegant form. To that end, we routed cables internally – including provision for a dropper seatpost. Mounting points include compatibility with our Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1 and a flat mount kickstand, while a tapered head tube ensures confidence-inspiring handling and the replaceable gear hanger means it's easy to get up and running again in the event of a knock to the derailleur. We sweat the detail, so you can just pedal...
An awful lot of the planet's roads aren't paved. That, of course, is why the Nuroad SLX exists. Built for pace, comfort and adaptability, its elegantly sculpted High Performance Aluminium frame and full carbon fork are just the start. We chose Sram's Rival AXS XPLR 1x13 gears for their dependable performance and wide range. Newmen Performance 25 Gravel wheels wear 45mm Continental Terra Trail tyres – and the frame has plenty of space for 50mm, if you choose to upgrade later. Sram Rival AXS hydraulic disc brakes ensure you can always slow and stop safely, whatever the weather is throwing your way. And mounting points for our mudguards, carriers and other accessories make it simple to set things up for any scenario.Frame descriptionTo create the Nuroad FE we took inspiration from our race and cyclocross bikes, then threw a little mountain bike DNA into the mix. There's plenty of clearance for big, grippy and comfortable 45mm tyres, even with the included full-length mudguards. There's our Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1, and we added a kickstand and a full lighting system. Neat Internal Cable Routing keeps cables out of the way, while thru-axle wheels add extra steering precision for safety and confidence, even on the roughest of roads. The full carbon fork isn't just lightweight – it also helps reduce vibration from the road and features lowrider rack mounts. And with sizes ranging from XS to XXL, it's simple to find the perfect fit.
