Troll components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a steel one, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels size
The Troll 2017 bike is equipped with 26″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Troll has Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes are also very popular, and a lot cheaper than hydraulic disk brakes. However, with hydraulic disk brakes, you have the ultimate braking power!
Sizes
Troll comes in 4 sizes, that range from 151 cm – 184 cm (4.95 ft – 6.04 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
