Overview of components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the SunTour XCM model. The travel on this model is 80mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the Bravo e-bike is equipped with the aluminum model. 650b wheels make a great choice if you want to sacrifice speed for comfort. However, they don’t perform so well when you go over bumps and obstacles.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. VoltBike Bravo is equipped with Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
