Overview of components
Rear Shock
Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. To sum up, always consider getting a bike that has a rear shock as well.
Wheels size
The Superfly FS 9.7 SL 2015 bike is equipped with 29″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Trek Superfly FS 9.7 SL has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
