Backfire Fit<br />

The fitness trainer<br />

well·ness fac·tor [‘welnəs ‘fæktəʳ]: factor, condition etc which supports our well-being considerably. Sport is<br />

healthy – this fact was certainly not invented by <strong>CENTURION</strong>. But we have thought about an optimal concept for combining<br />

sport, fun and wellness. Our proposal for solution: The MTB model Backfire Fit. In contrast to its “colleagues“<br />

among the Backfire series, the Fit model is not designed as a primarily sportive MTB for potential racing purposes.<br />

Instead, it stands for an excellent leisure device with a built-in “fun amplifier”.<br />

In <strong>2014</strong>, three great Backfire Fit variants are waiting for being pedalled by you preferably off a very often too stressful<br />

and urban daily routine. All models share a light but very robust aluminium frame with several geometric specialties:<br />

In contrast to comparable MTB <strong>version</strong>s, the connection between top and seat tube is positioned much deeper. This<br />

does mean that a <strong>CENTURION</strong> Backfire Fit never causes a “cramped” feeling when you have to stop e. g. spontaneously<br />

or at traffic lights – actively supported by the lower BB position. In addition, the effective top tube length is<br />

shorter. Together with the increased head tube length, this results in a moderately upright seating position – very<br />

advantageous for a good overview and especially friendly to the rider’s back section. Nevertheless, their configuration<br />

characterizes all Backfire Fit models as “genuine” MTBs: Studded 26” off-road tyres, an 80 mm suspension fork and<br />

a triple drivetrain with broad gear transmission ratio do get the fun rolling.<br />
