Green’s Somerset

The ‘Somerset’ model from Green’s, launched in 2021, is a versatile and robust bicycle that impresses with a host of well-thought-out features. The frame is made of aluminium, giving the bike a solid yet lightweight structure, with a total weight of 20 kg. The Somerset is fitted with Magura HS11 hydraulic rim brakes, which ensure reliable safety at both the front and rear. In addition, the rear braking system features a coaster brake, offering extra comfort when braking.

The bike is fitted with a Nexus gear system, operated via a Nexus twist grip and offering a total of seven gears. This allows for an adaptable ride across a variety of terrain. The suspension fork provides additional comfort by absorbing bumps in the road. For lighting, the Somerset is fitted with an AXA Compactline front light and a rear brake light, both of which are powered by a hub dynamo and are therefore battery-free.

The 38-tooth crankset and the adjustable stem contribute to the bike’s flexibility and adaptability. The aluminium hollow-section rims are eyeleted and fitted with Continental Contact Pl 47-622 tyres, which ensure good road holding. The stainless steel spokes contribute to the wheels’ durability and stability. The Selle Royal Viaggio saddle ensures a comfortable ride, whilst the seat post is permanently fitted.

The Somerset features plastic mudguards to protect against splashes and a sturdy rear stand for easy parking. The aluminium luggage rack with a flap offers additional storage options and rounds off the bike’s functionality. Priced at 899 EUR, the Green’s Somerset offers good value for money for anyone looking for a reliable and well-equipped bike.
