Overview of components
Fork material
Kids Road – Shimano Claris has an aluminum fork, which doesn’t add too much extra weight to the bike. However, it is not so stiff as steel or carbon forks are.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Kids Road – Shimano Claris bike is equipped with the 26″ aluminum model. Being a little smaller, these wheels will fit both small and tall riders. However, you will need increased suspension than in the case of 29″ wheels.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Kids Road – Shimano Claris has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
Ridley Kids Road – Shimano Claris 2021 is available in one size only. In conclusion, make sure it fits you, or look for another model.
