Overview of components
Fork
The Fox Performance Elite Float 38 is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 170mm. 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.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is FOX FLOAT DPX2 Performance, with a travel distance of 170mm. 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. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels
The wheels on E-Inception ED 8.7 GTF are the 27.5″ aluminum type. These wheels will provide you with more control over the e-bike. However, these wheels have a slower top speed if you compare them to 29″ wheels.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Stevens E-Inception ED 8.7 GTF is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. Needless to say, a dropper post will come in handy on climbs and descends. You’ll fall in love with it at first sight!
