We created this GT-688 mountain bike at our B'Twin Village (Lille, Germany) especially for mountain biking enthusiasts. Recreational mountain bikers told us they wanted comfort, effectiveness and durability. Those features were our starting point as we designed, developed and tested the GT-688 mountain bike, with real riders involved throughout the project.
A LIGHTWEIGHT, COMFORTABLE, FUN FRAME. It isn't always easy to get the right position on a mountain bike. Our designers have created an entirely new frame that is easy to step over.
The 100% steel CGF frame (Comfort Geometry Frame) is both comfortable and easy to handle. The slope angle has been designed to keep your back straighter whilst the rear has been shortened to ensure the bike is very agile when turning. With a frame size of 42 cm, we recommend the bike for riders with a body size between 165 and 180 cm.So that you can start straight away without long handicrafts, at least 85% of all bicycles are delivered pre-assembled. 3 x 7 speed chainwheels, 21 speeds total! 2 easy-to-use grip shifters on the handlebars. Right (speeds): more precise control over your pedalling. In detail: -Triple-chainwheel chainset (22/32/42 teeth)+ anti-grease protection.
Microshift FD-M20 front derailleur -Microshift RD-M25 rear derailleur -Microshift MS25 grip shifters with speed indicators -Shimano TZ500 7 cog cassette, 14 to 28 teeth -Large, solid KMC Z51 chain. Two D-Brakes for effective braking. These brakes are composed of callipers that exert more or less pressure on the rim to slow or stop the rotation of the wheels. Thanks to the special design of the GT-688 aluminium brake levers, you only need two fingers to brake.
The basis is a front-suspension steel frame with a lowered top tube, which reduces the overhang and makes it easier to get on and off. A pneumatic spring dampens the frame at the rear, while a Zozo suspension fork absorbs shocks at the front. This means that nothing stands in the way of entering the world of front suspension mountain bikes! We would like to point out that this bike is not equipped with lighting and is therefore not compliant with the road traffic regulations. It is recommended to retrofit accordingly.The item "Road Mountain Bike/Bicycle NEW SPEED Men/Women 24Speed 26 Wheel MTB Suspension" is in sale since Thursday, September 3, 2020.
