Overview of components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a carbon one, so, it is super light and stiff. In conclusion, a carbon fork gives you great control when steering, and is also more forgiving.
Wheels size
The wheels on F95 Team Issue are the aluminum type. The 650c wheels are smaller in diameter than 700c. However, they are a little lighter than 700c wheels.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Felt F95 Team Issue has Rim brakes installed. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
