Kalle Nicolai is an institution in the bike industry. On the one hand, because he is one of the very few manufacturers that still produces its frames in Germany. On the other hand, because like no other they follow the concept of "design follows function". The combination of round and angular tubes belong to the image of Nicolai like the welding torches.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The Bosch motor climbs steep ramps effortlessly. The very natural riding feeling combines the Bosch Performance Line CX with a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. Whoever likes to go on long rides will be pleased with the very good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Nicolai GT1 EBOXX QLF in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (8000) .

Even the most treacherous downhill runs are effortlessly handled by the high-end Fox chassis. Setup-Nerds can squeeze out the maximum performance from the chassis thanks to the many setting options. The thick 38mm stanchions on the fork provide an extra dose of steering precision and performance. At the rear, the steel spring shock absorber provides maximum sensitivity. Bad brakes reduce the riding pleasure. Fortunately, this is not the case with the GT1 EBOXX QLF. With their four pistons and large brake rotors the Magura brake brakes good. The narrow #reifen_inch_breite Continental tires do not do this All Mountains range of use any justice. In our opinion, Nicolai has saved weight in the wrong place here. A nice touch: The gear and components are on a very good level. The trend is going towards increasingly longer main frames. With a very high Reach Value, Nicolai meets this trend. However, especially inexperienced riders must be aware that it takes a brave body effort to maneuver the GT1 EBOXX QLF.
