Expirience with the Stevens Taniwha

Stevens Taniwha Review If you like a lively bike, you should take the Racebike of Stevens into consideration. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Stevens, at 13,9 kg. Thus, the Stevens Racebike is one of the lighter Racebike that you get for 849 Euro . The 450 mm short chainstays make the bike playful and more maneuverable in tighter corners. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Stevens Taniwha suite the taste of most bikers. Finally, the Stevens Taniwha still has one point to prove: compared to the competitors in the same price segment, the Stevens has significantly stronger brakes. We like: 5 years warranty on the frame! Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Stevens Racebike sizing runs small.
