There's something to be said for not messing with a successful formula. That's why, when we set out to design a standard-setting hybrid gravel bike, we wanted to pay homage to road and cyclocross riding's long history of elegant, form-follows-function design. By enclosing the sophisticated Fazua drive unit and battery entirely within the down tube, our engineering team created a stiff and strong backbone for the Nuroad Hybrid C:62 but, just as importantly, one that also looks stunning. Our premium C:62 carbon and Advanced Twin Mold construction technique combine to create a frame that's surprisingly light, extremely responsive “ thanks partly to 12mm thru axles front and rear “ and superbly comfortable. The carbon fork and geometry tailored for comfort mean that you'll feel right at home, even on the longest rides, and we built in enough clearance for tyres up to 35mm so you can choose the right tyres for the job. Redefine your expectations of what a gravel bike can be, then go out and ride routes that you never thought possible...Never stop exploring. With the Nuroad Hybrid C:62 SL, you'll be able to extend your road tours further than ever before. Ride for longer, ride more climbs, keep going when the road ends.... it's the kind of e-bike that'll completely redefine your expectations. Blending the exceptional performance and sleek good looks of a frame constructed from our premium C:62 carbon with the smooth power delivery of Fazua's drive unit and 250Wh battery, it offers a revelatory ride experience. With access to our Advanced Twin Mold manufacturing technique “ and the benefit of years of experience producing some of the best e-bikes in the world “ our engineering team managed to enclose the removable drive unit and battery completely within the Nuroad Hybrid C:62 SL's elegant down tube. Combined with a wide-ranging Shimano 1x11 transmission, it means you'll experience easier climbs and extended range like never before. And, if you'd rather ride without e-assistance, it's simple to remove the drive unit and battery. Wide 35mm tyres, full-length mudguards and a dynamo-driven front and rear lighting system ensure you're equipped for long days out in the hills, while Shimano's gravel-specific GRX hydraulic disc brakes give you powerful all-weather stopping to keep you safely in control at all times. Big days out in big country just got bigger, with no extra effort. Isn't that a win/win?
