Overview of components
Fork
The MAKO DC 6 comes factory-installed with the RockShox SID Select fork. This has a travel range of 120mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. To sum up, when buying a bicycle, make sure you get a fork that is capable of delivering decent travel.
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, which is a lighter material. However, it is not as tough, nor durable as steel is.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the Rock Shox SIDLuxe ULTIMATE BERRIA MAKO 3 WC XCO Tuning rear shock model, which has a travel of 105mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels size
The MAKO DC 6 2023 bike is equipped with 29″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. 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. Berria MAKO DC 6 is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
Berria MAKO DC 6 bike has 3 sizes, in the range of 158 cm – 187 cm (5.18 ft – 6.14 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. If used correctly, a dropper post gives you more faith, maneuverability, and greater control over your bike.
