HiFi Deluxe GS components
Fork
The Fox is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 120mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels size
The wheels on HiFi Deluxe GS are the 29″ aluminum type. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, these wheels are not ideal for smaller people.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Gary Fisher HiFi Deluxe GS is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
This bike is available in 3 sizes. They vary from 151 cm – 179 cm (4.95 ft – 5.87 ft). In conclusion, it won’t take much to find one that’s right for you.
