Is this a Gravel-XC Bike?
Sílice Pinion with Lefty Ocho carbon fork Today we introduce you a very curious special project that we had the pleasure to build a few months ago. Christoph configured a Nua Sílice Pinion with our online bike builder, but left a surprising message in the comments space: "Can you change the standard fork for a Cannondale Lefty Ocho Carbon Fork, please?" . For the few of you who do not know this famous fork, a myth for its extreme smoothness and its radical appearance since it

Introducing Nua Drac
We are super happy to introduce our new model, the Nua Drac. Our first hardtail. Due to geometry we can classify it as a Trail or All Mountain. After quite a bit of development time, we are very satisfied with the final result. With a modern “long and slack” geometry (what else these days!), it is a bullet going down, but it is also a good roller and climbs very well. And we have equipped it with enough mounting holes to make it more versatile and an option for Bikepacking! N

Jon's Silice Touring Bike
Jon is an experienced touring guy. His old and well used Carradice side panniers are proof of this. By the way, what do you think of the custom lowriders racks we built especially for them? Another old school detail are the pedals toe clips and straps he still likes to use. Or the fact that he came to pick up the bike and returned home (in England) riding it, is another sign that this man devours more kilometers than energy bars. We leave you with some images of his fully equ

Viktor's off-road touring bike - Roure Pinion
We love it when a former customer, after enjoying his first Nua for a few years, orders a second bike from us. It is the best compliment that can be made of our work. And it happens more often and there are already quite a few “second Nua” bikes that we have out there. This is the case of Viktor. After ordering us a Kensho Pinion with some Randonneur saveur, Viktor needed something to travel seriously, well equipped, for any type of terrain, so he thought of ordering a Roure

Florian's Daily Racer - Silice Pinion
Ordering a custom bike has certain advantages. One of them is that you can have the bike you want or need, even if it doesn't exist in the mass-produced bike market. We present you an example with this Nua that we built for Florian. Sílice Pinion Bike Let's imagine that you want a racer bike, with a fairly stretched riding position, very low handlebars, road geometry, and an aesthetic to match, with dropped seat stays and an almost horizontal top tube.
