Overview of components
Fork
The RockShox 35 Gold RL is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 130mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. To sum it all, when buying a bike, ensure that you look for a fork capable of decent travel.
Rear Shock
The Macina Chacana 293 has a rear shock with a travel of 125mm. The model RockShox Deluxe Select+ is the one installed in this e-bike. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Macina Chacana 293 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, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Macina Chacana 293 comes with 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
Macina Chacana 293 comes in 3 sizes, that range from 158 cm – 187 cm (5.18 ft – 6.14 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. 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.
