MCL 3 components
Fork
The MCL 3 comes factory-installed with the SunTour fork. This has a travel range of 100mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the MCL 3 model has 27.5″ aluminum wheels. The 27.5″ wheels are a great choice for smaller riders. However, these wheels have a slower top speed if you compare them to 29″ wheels.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The MCL 3 comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, you could spend a little extra and get a bike that has hydraulic brakes.
Sizes
There are 3 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 151 cm – 179 cm (4.95 ft – 5.87 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
