MTB Front: Lightness, Speed ​​and Pure Reactivity

Welcome to the Novo Cicli MTB Front (Hardtail) collection, the benchmark for those seeking maximum efficiency in Cross Country (XC) and marathon racing. If you're looking for a bike where every watt you put into the pedals instantly translates into speed, our selection of high-end hardtails is your definitive choice.

The Iconic Models in Our Catalog

At Novo Cicli we have selected the frames that have written the history of world competitions, guaranteeing you access to the most advanced technologies on the market:

  • Giant XTC Advanced SL: The heart of the Giant range. A frame that needs no introduction, designed to be the lightest and stiffest the brand has ever produced, ideal for the steepest climbs.

  • BMC Twostroke 01: A revolution in geometry. The Twostroke challenges the limits of hardtails with a progressive approach, offering downhill stability previously exclusive to full-suspension bikes.

BMC and Giant's New Technological Frontiers

BMC Innovation: Radical Geometry and Versatility

BMC has revolutionized the hardtail concept with the Twostroke 01. The key technology here is Progressive Geometry :

  • 67° Head Angle: An extreme value for Cross Country, which allows you to tackle technical descents with the safety of a trail bike.

  • Dropper Seatpost Adapter: Unlike many competitors, the BMC frame is designed to accommodate 27.2mm dropper posts with internal cable routing, allowing you to lower your center of gravity on steep sections.

  • TCC (Tuned Compliance Concept) Gravel/MTB: The seat stay design is optimized to flex slightly, ensuring rear wheel traction even over roots, without losing the efficiency of a front wheel.

Giant Engineering: Structural Stiffness and OverDrive

Giant pushes the accelerator on the pure responsiveness of the XTC Advanced SL :

  • Advanced SL Monocoque Construction: Utilizes ultra-high performance carbon fiber to eliminate the outer protective composite layer, saving weight without sacrificing strength.

  • OverDrive 2: This steering system features oversized bearings that give the front end incredible torsional stiffness. This means that when you pull on the handlebars uphill or take a fast turn, the bike doesn't flex.
