Aurora Limited components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the SunTour XCM model. The travel on this model is 100mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Wheels
The wheels on Aurora Limited are the 26″ aluminum type. These wheels give you great handling over your e-bike. However, you will need increased suspension than in the case of 29″ wheels.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. EVELO Aurora Limited is equipped with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
