Though it may look like a full-suspension down country MTB, the true beating heart of Urta Hybrid is hidden inside it. The new Fazua Ride 60 pedalling assistance system is light, compact, silent, and perfectly integrated within the frame.
Thanks to an external auxiliary battery that can be fitted on the down tube (a solution that will still let you carry a bottle on the seat tube), the capacity of the system can be extended up to 640 Wh.
When developing Urta Hybrid, the starting point for Wilier's Innovation Lab engineers was the URTA SLR, the full-suspension cross-country bike used by Simone Avondetto, winner of the 2022 XCO U23 World Championship.
Though closely mirroring the racing version, the suspension kinematics in Urta Hybrid have been improved and further developed to meet the needs of an e-downcountry bike.
The rear shock link is integrated with the frame, providing extreme torsional stiffness and - not least - cleaner and sleeker aesthetics.
The 120 mm travel (both front and rear) and the aggressive geometries make Urta Hybrid compact, safe and powerful.
In detail, the geometries feature a longer reach for keeping them centred and tucked within the frame, a 75° seat tube for increased responsiveness in the push stage and a head tube angled at 66.5° for greater maneuverability.
Like the Urta SLR version, Urta Hybrid is available with a 760 mm-width Urta Bar monocoque carbon handlebar, in a choice of 3 stem lengths: 60, 75 or 90 mm.
The frame/handlebar pairing in a single, highly integrated module adds superior performance thanks to its limited weight (150 grams lighter with Urta Bar) as well as increased comfort.
The Urta Bar provides better vibration absorption compared to the traditional aluminium handlebar and stem.
