Thron² 6.8 EQP SMALL components
Fork
The Thron² 6.8 EQP SMALL comes factory-installed with the Suntour X1 fork. This has a travel range of 120mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is SR Suntour Edge LOR, with a travel distance of 130mm. Bike rear shocks increase the riding comfort, and also give you more control over technical trails. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Thron² 6.8 EQP SMALL model has 700c aluminum wheels. These wheels are the most used kind for road bikes in general. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Thron² 6.8 EQP SMALL has Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
