Overview of components
Fork
The Rakan 29 1.3 comes factory-installed with the Fox Rhythm Float 34 fork. This has a travel range of 130mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. To sum it all, when buying a bike, ensure that you look for a fork capable of decent travel.
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, which doesn’t add too much extra weight to the bike. However, it is not so stiff as steel or carbon forks are.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is Fox Float EVOL Performance, with a travel distance of 120mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Rakan 29 1.3 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. With 29″ wheels, bumps will feel lighter and you’ll gain more speed on descends, compared to smaller wheel-sized bikes. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Rakan 29 1.3 has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
There are 4 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 157 cm – 195 cm (5.15 ft – 6.4 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
Dropper post
