NUA DRAC PINION SMART.SHIFT
Pure titanium all-mountain performance, built for trails without limits.
Drac represents our vision of the modern titanium hardtail - progressive, capable, and built for pure trail enjoyment. Its handcrafted Grade 9 titanium frame blends classic material character with contemporary MTB geometry.
With a 65° head angle, long wheelbase, and 29” wheels supporting up to 2.6” tyres, the Drac is stable and composed on steep descents while remaining efficient and lively on climbs and flowing terrain. It is designed for riders who want confidence when the trail turns technical and speed when it opens up.
The Pinion Smart.Shift electronic gearbox elevates this platform further. Integrated into the frame and paired with a Gates Carbon Belt Drive, it delivers fast, precise shifting at the push of a button - even under load. Fully sealed and impact-protected, the system removes the vulnerability of traditional derailleurs while offering clean, quiet, and low-maintenance operation.
Like all Nua bikes, versatility remains part of its DNA. Multiple mounting points allow for racks, additional bottles, and cargo solutions, making the Drac equally capable of extended trail missions and bikepacking trips.
The Nua Drac Pinion Smart.Shift combines electronic precision with titanium resilience - a modern trail hardtail built for riders who want performance without fragility.
