The 80 mm front suspension helps you get started with overcoming obstacles on slightly uneven trails easily. Easily adjust the hardness using U-Fit technology (weight adjuster). Simply set the number to your weight using the dial on the fork.
This mountain bike has no rear suspension. It is a "semi-stiff" mountain bike: perfect for beginners launching themselves into their first mountain bike touring rides. Compared to a full suspension mountain bike (with rear suspension), the advantages are clear: the mountain bike is lighter; you spend less energy on flat ground.
The 27.5" wheels of the ST 520 are tolerant and sturdy, with 19 mm double-walled rims with 28 spokes. Overcome your first obstacles without fear: small rocks, cracks, holes and bumps! Because your first tours will be on dry ground, the Dry 27.5 x 2.0 tyres are most suitable. Their performance is optimised thanks to the rounded central section, whilst the side lugs provide good grip on turns.
The ST 520's saddle fixing (welded) prevents any saddle movement as you cycle. Because your comfort is our next priority after safety, we've added an exclusive wider Ergofit saddle with a hammock shape. Easily adjust the height of your saddle with the Flex steel seat post, either 350mm or 400mm long (according to the bike size). Its reduced diameter of 27.2mm provides your seat with natural flexibility, 30% more than a standard solution.
