Overview of components
Fork
This bike has the Fox Performance Float 34 fork installed. The fork’s travel is 120mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
Kona Hei Hei CR bike has the Fox Float DPS Evol Performance model installed, and has a travel of 120mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Hei Hei CR 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 Hei Hei CR comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
Kona Hei Hei CR bike has 4 sizes, in the range of 152 cm – 195 cm (4.99 ft – 6.4 ft). In conclusion, it won’t take much to find one that’s right for you.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the Hei Hei CR. 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.
