Overview of components
Fork
The Fox Factory Float 36 is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 150mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. To sum it all, when buying a bike, ensure that you look for a fork capable of decent travel.
Rear Shock
Rear shocks improve riding comfort and give you greater control over all terrains. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the SLIDE TRAIL 10.0 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The SLIDE TRAIL 10.0 comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In conclusion, double-check its size to make sure it’s a good fit for you.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the SLIDE TRAIL 10.0. If you are a technical rider, a dropper post is essential. A dropper post provides increased safety while riding. The lever system, allows you to move your saddle up and down, which is very useful on climbs and descends.
