Sugar2 components
Fork
This bike has the Manitou fork installed. The fork’s travel is 80mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Sugar2 model has 26″ wheels. Being a little smaller, these wheels will fit both small and tall riders. However, they are less forgiving when riding over obstacles such as bumps and roots.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Sugar2 comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
Sugar2 comes in 6 sizes, that range from 158 cm – 180 cm (5.18 ft – 5.91 ft). In short, you can easily find one that suits you.
