Rear Shock
Kona Hei Hei Race Supreme bike has the RockShox Monarch XX w/ Xlock Full Sprint model installed, and has a travel of 100mm. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels size
