Overview
The HYB 8.6 is a fast and comfortable all-rounder which takes the speed of a road bike and adds in comfort and stability with a more upright position. A lightweight triple butted aluminium frame transfers power efficiently and won’t hold you back when climbing.
2x9 speed Shimano Alivio drivetrain combines a 48/32t chainset with an 11-36t 9 speed cassette to give a wide range and low climbing gears, and Tektro HD-M275 hydraulic disc brakes provide easily controlled stopping power. 35mm Schwlabe Citizen tyres grip well and roll fast, while offering good puncture resistance through their K-Guard Kevlar protection.
A stylish integrated 1 piece handlebar and stem give the HYB 8.6 a premium look, and combined with soft touch, ergonomically shaped grips, ensure a comfortable hand position. With fixtures for mudguards and a pannier rack too, the HYB 8.6 is a very versatile package.
