Frame
Frame
Made with a steel frame to better absorb vibrations from the road, making your ride more comfortable. Available in a step-through frame model, making it easier to get on the bike whether a man or woman, and a step-over frame model. Size XS, frame weight: 3.5 kg Size S/M and L/XL, frame weight (steel): 4 kg
Suspension Fork
Steel fork to absorb the small bumps in the road and keep you more comfortable as you ride.
Wheels
Rims
28" aluminium single-walled front and rear wheels, 36 spokes. The XS model has 26" wheels. Why these sizes? Because it provides our users with the added comfort and rolling quality that a 28" wheel delivers. The front and rear wheels are tightened with bolts to discourage opportunistic theft. To easily transport your bike in a vehicle, use a 15 mm wrench to remove the front wheel. 9 mm threaded front/rear wheel axles.
Tires
Balloon-type tyres to smooth out lumps and bumps in the road and keep you more comfortable as you ride while providing better rolling. The Schrader valves make the tyres easier to inflate, even at a garage. Ideal tyre pressure is between 3.5 and 4 bar. 1 mm puncture-prevention nylon tyre liner built into the tyre tread. XS tyres: Etrto 559-44 (26" x 1.75) S/M and L/XL tyres: Etrto 44-622 (700*45C / 28" x 1.62)

CITY BIKE 520 LOW FRAME components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a steel one, so, it can add some extra weight to your bike. However, steel is a pretty tough and durable material.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the CITY BIKE 520 LOW FRAME model has 700c aluminum wheels. 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
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. ELOPS CITY BIKE 520 LOW FRAME is equipped with Mechanical Disc brakes. They are much easier to maintain than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
