Fork
The RockShox Lyrik Select is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 160mm. 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.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the ROOTDOWN G3 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The ROOTDOWN G3 comes with 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, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
ROOTDOWN G3 comes in 5 sizes, that range from 155 cm – 200 cm (5.09 ft – 6.56 ft). In conclusion, finding one for you shouldn’t be a problem.
