Origin
The Colorado is Stevens' long-running aluminium hardtail line — the accessible entry into the Stevens MTB family. Named after the US state and the Colorado River, evoking vast trail landscapes. The Colorado 401 sits at the top of the alloy range and punches above its weight with a Fox 32 Float fork, Shimano Deore XT groupset and four-piston hydraulic brakes. Lower variants (Colorado 601, 701) offer the same DNA with more affordable components.
