Van Nicholas Valkyr 650B XT Disc Full Suspension Titanium Mountain Bike
Lifetime Frame Warranty
Titanium won’t rust, corrode or break down. We are extremely proud of our products. This is why we guarantee our frames for life
Crash Replacement Warranty
If a Van Nicholas Titanium frame is damaged in an accident not covered by our manufacturer warranty, we will provide a replacement frame for 50% of the current value.
Warranty Re-Certification
Consumers wanting to sell or purchase a used van Nicholas Titanium bicycle or frame can send it directly to our office for Re-Certification and the issue of a new manufacturer’s warranty.
Hand Brushed Finish
We think the best way to showcase our Titanium frames it is to hand brush them to bring out the natural brightness
Van Nicholas Seamless Hydroformance Ti Tubing
Hydroforming allows us to optimise the structural rigidity of a smaller gauge of metal, so the only thing lost is weight, not performance.
Engraved Head Tube Logo
We etch our classic logo directly onto the head tube, so everyone will know the bike you’re riding is a Van Nicholas.
Press Fit Bottom Bracket
Fewer parts ensure a lighter assembly than conventional cups. The larger diameter bottom bracket increases the stiffness significantly.
Tapered Headset
Tapered to provide increased rigidity at maximum load point and ensure positive, direct power transfer and ride feedback.
3D Sculpted Dropouts
We designed our dropout from every angle to ensure maximum efficiency at one of the highest-strain contact points of the frame.
120 mm Full-Suspension Corrected
No loss of speed, no matter how rough the terrain: even out every surface with 120 mm of rear suspension travel.
650B Wheels
Halfway between 26” and 29” wheels, 650B’s offer the speed and agility of the former and the trail-blazing rollability of the latter.
