Overview of components
Fork material

Wheels
As for the wheels, KHS SMOOTHIE 3-Speed 2019, has a 26″ aluminum model. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. KHS SMOOTHIE 3-Speed has Coaster brakes installed. These brakes are pretty efficient, and they’re not so pricey. However, they have flaws, especially if the chain falls off.
