Affordable Performance for Everyday Riders

The Dawes Discovery 1.0 Hybrid Bike is the ideal entry-level hybrid bike, offering solid performance and comfort for casual rides, fitness cycling, or commuting. With a lightweight alloy frame, durable components, and a reliable braking system, this bike is designed to provide a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyday cyclists.

Lightweight and Robust Frame

The lightweight 6061 alloy frame provides a durable yet light construction, making it easy to handle while maintaining strength for everyday use. The hi-tensile steel fork adds stability and absorbs road vibrations, ensuring a smoother ride on various terrains.

Smooth and Efficient Gear System

The Shimano EZ-Fire Plus ST-EF500 gear shifters provide simple and reliable gear changes, while the Shimano RD-TY300 rear derailleur ensures smooth shifting across the 7-speed drivetrain. The Shimano FD-TY510 front derailleur delivers efficient gear transitions, paired with the Shimano Freewheel Tourney TZ500 7-speed cassette, offering a 14-28T gear range for versatile riding. The 170mm alloy cranks with 48-38-28T chainrings make pedalling efficient, whether you're cruising on flat roads or tackling slight inclines.

Reliable Braking System

Equipped with mechanical disc brakes (DB280) and 160mm rotors, the Dawes Discovery 1.0 offers reliable stopping power in all conditions. The alloy brake levers contribute to precise braking performance and overall durability.

Comfortable and Ergonomic Design

The 620mm-wide alloy oversized riser handlebar features a 30mm rise and a 15-degree backsweep, promoting an ergonomic riding posture for better comfort during longer rides. The 75mm alloy ahead stem with a 10-degree rise ensures that the handlebars are at the right height for comfortable handling. The Dawes Sport Saddle, combined with the 27.2mm x 350mm micro-adjust alloy seat post, provides a comfortable and adjustable seating position.

Durable and Puncture-Resistant Wheels

The double-wall alloy rims provide added strength and durability, while the 36H quick-release steel hubs ensure easy maintenance and wheel removal. The 700x40C trekking tyres are designed with puncture resistance and a reflective line for better visibility and safety when riding in low-light conditions.
