Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is Fox Float DPS Performance Elite EVOL, with a travel distance of 100mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
