Overview of components
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the e-bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the CITY e-bike is equipped with the 26″ aluminum model. The 26″ wheels are lighter than the 27.5 or 29″ wheels. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The CITY comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
