Myka Disc 650b components
Fork
The Myka Disc 650b comes factory-installed with the SunTour fork. This has a travel range of 75mm. 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.
Fork material
The fork on this bike is made out of steel, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels
The wheels on Myka Disc 650b are the 27.5″ aluminum type. These wheels will provide you with more control over the bike. However, the 27.5″ wheels are less forgiving than the 29″ wheels.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Myka Disc 650b has Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes are also very popular, and a lot cheaper than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
Sizes
Myka Disc 650b comes in 4 sizes, that range from 151 cm – 184 cm (4.95 ft – 6.04 ft). In conclusion, finding one for you shouldn’t be a problem.
