Electronic Gearbox Shifting: Our Experience with Pinion Smart.Shift
At Nua Bikes, we’ve integrated Pinion Smart.Shift across dozens of titanium builds and have been impressed with its real-world performance. Riders benefit from precise, consistent, and low-maintenance shifting, combined with the versatility of our frame designs. Smart.Shift introduces the ability to shift under load, a feature that complements the already robust mechanical Pinion gearbox. This means riders can shift gears even while climbing or sprinting without reducing peda

True Customization: A Handlebar Built Around Its Rider
When a customer told us they had one arm slightly longer than the other, we didn’t hesitate — we designed a custom titanium handlebar with one side 20mm taller for a perfectly balanced fit. This unique Nua Luna Rohloff build is a true example of what “custom” means at Nua: thoughtful design, precision engineering, and the freedom to tailor every detail to the rider.

Eric's Nua Luna Rohloff
Today we show you this Nua Luna we built for Eric some weeks ago. It is a clear example of a fully equipped and utilitarian bike, but maintaining the Nua aesthetic (naked and simple), and at the same time sexy, those red hubs help! Nua Lua Rohloff Eric wanted a longer transmission ratio than usual, since apparently he likes to go fast but at a very low cadence, so a 60 tooth Carbondrive front sprocket was necessary (we usually ride 55T). This change gave us quite a headache,

Sporty Style Kesho Pinion
We built this bike for Pascal, and we like it a lot, because of the combination of the racing feeling that the Kensho model itself offers as one of its main characteristics, and the classic/vintage aesthetics that the customer chose. Brown leather + titanium. What else? It reminds us of a vintage sports car.

Jason's Luna Pinion Commuter
Jason wrote to us from Sydney, looking for a new commuter bike for his daily rides. After some years with a Specialized Sirrus Carbon, super modified and super light, he thought it was time to search for something more comfortable. As you know, correctly designed titanium frame is the summum of comfort. Add a tailored geometry and fit, and you got a hard bike to match in that way.

Sporty And Classic - A Good Kensho Pinion Version
This is Viktor’s Nua, the first bike we shipped to Ukraine. He has chosen the most racer Nua (Kensho) and has given it a classic touch that we like very much. These wheels (Dt Swiss E 1800 32 SP 700C Black) give the bike that cool sporty touch, and the Berthoud bags and our custom racks the classic style. We build the front rack according to the small Berthoud bag, but it has a special support, to tie the big one in the proper way and not just hanging it to the handlebar both
