Overview of components
Fork
The RockShox Yari RC is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 160mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the Cane Creek DB IL Air rear shock model, which has a travel of 160mm. 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 short, if you want smooth rides, get a full-suspension bicycle.
Wheels size
The Taniwha Standard 2019 bike is equipped with 27.5″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. 27.5″ wheels will reach higher speeds than smaller-sized wheels. However, the 27.5″ wheels are less forgiving than the 29″ wheels.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Zerode Taniwha Standard has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the Taniwha Standard. 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.
