Overview of components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the SunTour RAIDON 32 model. The travel on this model is 100mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Fork material
The fork on this bike is made out of aluminum, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the TEMPE bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. KHS TEMPE is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In conclusion, make sure it fits you, or look for another model.
