Frame

Suspension Fork

The 80 mm front suspension helps you get started with overcoming obstacles on slightly uneven trails easily. Easily adjust the hardness using U-Fit technology (weight adjuster). Simply set the number to your weight using the dial on the fork.

Wheels

Tires

The 27.5" wheels of the ST 520 are tolerant and sturdy, with 19 mm double-walled rims with 28 spokes. Overcome your first obstacles without fear: small rocks, cracks, holes and bumps! Because your first rides will be on dry ground, the Dry 27.5 x 2.0 tyres are most suitable. Great performance thanks to a central section with low rolling resistance and side knobs that provide good grip on turns.

Brakes

Brakes

The Tektro TKD 68 double disc brakes provide powerful, progressive braking at the front and rear. The aluminium Tektro brake levers are light, precise, and easy to hold. The brakes can be applied using only two fingers. We recommend that you have your brakes checked at least once a year.

Seat

Saddle

The ST 520's saddle fixing (welded) prevents any saddle movement as you cycle. Because your comfort is our next priority after safety, we've added an exclusive Ergofit saddle that is wider and hammock shaped. Easily adjust the height of your saddle with the Flex steel seat post, either 350mm or 400mm long (depending on the bike size). Its smaller 27.2mm diameter provides your seat with natural flexibility, 30% more than a standard solution.
