Overview of components
Fork material

Wheels size
The Cruiser Lux 1 Step-Thru 2020 bike is equipped with 26″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Cruiser Lux 1 Step-Thru comes with Coaster brakes. These brakes are pretty efficient, and they’re not so pricey. However, they have flaws, especially if the chain falls off.
Sizes
