Overview of components
Fork
The RST is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 63mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Wheels
The Capitola 2004 bike is equipped with 26″ wheels when leaving the factory. The 26″ wheels are lighter than the 27.5 or 29″ wheels. However, they are less forgiving when riding over obstacles such as bumps and roots.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Capitola has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, you could spend a little extra and get a bike that has hydraulic brakes.
Sizes
Capitola comes in 7 sizes, that range from 158 cm – 189 cm (5.18 ft – 6.2 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
