Overview of components
Fork material
Gorilla Monsoon has a steel fork, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Gorilla Monsoon model has aluminum wheels. The 650b wheels are very similar to 700c, with a slight difference in diameter. However, if speed is what you’re after, 700c wheels are a better fit.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This bike has Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes are also very popular, and a lot cheaper than hydraulic disk brakes. However, they don’t have the stopping power of hydraulic brakes.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. If used correctly, a dropper post gives you more faith, maneuverability, and greater control over your bike.
