Overview of components
Fork material

Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the RIDEAU LADIES bike is equipped with the 700c aluminum model. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
