NUA TERRA PINION SMART.SHIFT
Pure titanium capability, made for heavy loads and remote adventures.
The Nua Terra Pinion Smart.Shift is a titanium monster gravel and drop-bar bikepacking bike engineered for riders seeking advanced drivetrain technology combined with extreme off-road capability. Built around Nua’s handcrafted Grade 9 titanium frame and the precision of the Pinion Smart.Shift electronic gearbox system, it delivers smooth, effortless shifting and dependable performance for challenging terrain and long-distance expedition riding.
The frame provides the smooth, resilient ride quality titanium is known for while maintaining exceptional stability under load and confidence on technical terrain. Designed to bridge the gap between gravel and mountain biking, the Terra features a higher bottom bracket for improved obstacle clearance, dropper post compatibility, and extensive mounting options for full bikepacking and expedition setups. Internal routing and sliding dropouts maintain a clean aesthetic and precise belt tension for reliable long-term performance.
The Pinion Smart.Shift system offers fast, precise electronic gear changes with minimal effort, maintaining consistent shifting performance regardless of terrain or weather conditions. Combined with a Gates Carbon Belt Drive, it provides a quiet, low-maintenance drivetrain engineered for demanding off-road use and extended travel in remote environments. Two tyre platform options are available: 27.5" wheels and 2.8" / 70 mm tyres for maximum traction and control, or 29" wheels and 2.25" / 57 mm tyres for efficient rolling on long-distance mixed-surface routes.
The Terra is equipped exclusively with the Nua Titanium Type B fork, forming a cohesive full-titanium front end built for durability, load stability, and expedition-ready performance. Stable geometry ensures confident handling on steep climbs, technical descents, and rough mixed-terrain routes with heavy loads.
Available as a frameset or complete build, the Nua Terra Pinion Smart.Shift is a forward-thinking titanium bike designed for riders who want advanced shifting technology, minimal maintenance, and uncompromising capability for monster gravel and global bikepacking adventures.
