Bolinas Ridge 1 components
Fork
The SunTour XCT is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 100mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Bolinas Ridge 1 bike is equipped with the 27.5″ aluminum model. 27.5″ wheels will reach higher speeds than smaller-sized wheels. However, the overall traction of 27.5″ wheels is lower than 29″ wheels.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Marin Bolinas Ridge 1 is equipped with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, you could spend a little extra and get a bike that has hydraulic brakes.
Sizes
There are 6 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 158 cm – 194 cm (5.18 ft – 6.36 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
