Fork
Cannondale Moterra Neo 5 2023 e-bike is equipped with the Suntour XCR fork, and has 140mm travel. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this e-bike has an aluminum one, which is a lighter material. However, it is not as tough, nor durable as steel is.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is X-Fusion 02 Pro RL, with a travel distance of 150mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Moterra Neo 5 e-bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, 29″ wheels will make your e-bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
