Safety
When you go for a ride, don’t forget to put your helmet on. Moreover, ride with traffic, not against it. This will help you stay visible to drivers and also makes it easier for them to see you.
Crosscountry bikes average price
If you want to purchase a solid Crosscountry bike, it is important to know that the average cost is 1905$. However, this doesn’t mean that if you spend less money on a Crosscountry bike, you couldn’t get a decent one. To sum up, when you purchase your bike, make sure to check if it has reviews, and also do some components research.
Internal Cable Routing
This bike has an internal cable routing. As a result, this helps to preserve the bike’s cables. No more cables around your bike.
CHRONO CARBON SE components
Fork
The RockShox Recon Gold RL is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 100mm. 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
The fork on this bike is made out of aluminum, which doesn’t add too much extra weight to the bike. However, it is not so stiff as steel or carbon forks are.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the CHRONO CARBON SE 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, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The CHRONO CARBON SE has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
CHRONO CARBON SE comes in 4 sizes, that range from 158 cm – 199 cm (5.18 ft – 6.53 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
