Overview of components

Wheels
The wheels on FLITE 600 are the 700c aluminum type. There is no doubt, that 700c wheels are very popular on all road bike models. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.

Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In short, make sure you double-check if it fits you.
