Overview of components
Fork material
Verza Cruz 21 has a steel fork, so, it can add some extra weight to your bike. However, steel is a pretty tough and durable material.
Wheels
The Verza Cruz 21 2017 bike is equipped with aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. The 650b wheels are very similar to 700c, with a slight difference in diameter. However, they don’t perform so well when you go over bumps and obstacles.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Verza Cruz 21 comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
