Green’s Colchester

The ‘Colchester’ model from the ‘Green’s’ brand, released in 2021, is a versatile bicycle fitted with a wide range of high-quality components. The bike’s frame is made of aluminium, contributing to a total weight of 16 kg and thus offering a solid balance between stability and lightness. The hydraulic disc brakes ensure reliable braking performance in a range of conditions, whilst the Deore XT 30-speed gear system allows for precise and flexible adaptation to different riding requirements.

The Colchester’s shift lever is also a Deore model, ensuring seamless integration with the drivetrain. The suspension fork with lock-out function offers additional comfort on uneven terrain and can be locked out when needed to improve efficiency on smooth roads. For lighting, the bike is fitted with a Herrmans H-Black LED front light and a rear light, both of which are powered by a hub dynamo, meaning no batteries are required.

The Deore Hollowtech II crankset contributes to the efficiency and durability of the drivetrain. The adjustable A-Head stem allows the rider to adjust the handlebar position to suit their individual preferences, whilst the aluminium hollow-section rims with black spokes and Schwalbe Citizen Re 42-622 tyres ensure a stable and comfortable ride. The Selle Royal Ariel saddle offers additional comfort, supported by a rigid seatpost.

Practical details such as plastic mudguards, a sturdy rear stand and a Racktime luggage rack make the Colchester a reliable companion for everyday use. The price of 969 EUR reflects the high-quality specification and the versatile uses of this model. Overall, the Green’s Colchester offers a balanced combination of performance, comfort and functionality, making it suitable for both everyday use and longer tours.
