Overview of components
Wheels

Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Mako has Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
Sizes
This bike is available in 5 sizes. They vary from 156 cm – 195 cm (5.12 ft – 6.4 ft). In conclusion, finding one for you shouldn’t be a problem.
