Overview of components
Fork

Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is FOX FLOAT DPS Performance, with a travel distance of 140mm. Rear shocks improve riding comfort and give you greater control over all terrains. To sum up, always consider getting a bike that has a rear shock as well.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the XTEP Lynx 5.5 Pro-S model has 29″ aluminum wheels. With 29″ wheels, bumps will feel lighter and you’ll gain more speed on descends, compared to smaller wheel-sized bikes. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the e-bike itself.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This e-bike has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Sizes

Dropper post
BH XTEP Lynx 5.5 Pro-S includes a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
