Moulton NS Rapide

Bicycles and Human-Powered Road Vehicles

The Moulton NS Rapide is a road focused bicycle announced by the Moulton Bicycle Company as a new model of its New Series range in 2026. Moulton describes it as a refinement of the New Series separable spaceframe, built from Columbus Spirit, Reynolds 853 and Kaisei NiCrMo steels with stainless steel dropouts, and paired with Flexitor front suspension and Hydrolastic rear suspension. It is the first production Moulton to use the larger 451mm wheel size, although it can also be set up with the original 406mm wheels, and it is specified with 50mm carbon rims, hydraulic disc brakes and a 12 or 13 speed road drivetrain. The listed build weighs 9.9 kg and the company calls it the lightest separable Moulton available, with a frameset sold separately through authorised retailers.
