Ahead of the summer season, Bianchi has unveiled its new race-ready hardtail, the Nitron.
The bike is a 29-inch-wheel, carbon fibre hardtail with ‘race ready’ geometry, constructed using Bianchi’s advanced carbon fibre lay-up technology. The Nitron frame uses highly tuned tube profiles, from the headtube to the dropouts. It features a considered stiffness to weight ratio, accurate steering and 100mm of travel with a remote lockout switch.
Bianchi MTB official racing team inspired the addition of internal cable routing for a dropper seatpost on the Nitron. Dropper posts are a growing trend for XCO and XCM riders.
The component specification includes internal routing for the 2x Shimano side-swing front derailleur. Riders can choose to run it 1x or 2x according to their preferences.
