Overview of components
Fork
The Fox Float 34 is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 160mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the Fox Float CTD BV Remote w.Kashima Coat rear shock model, which has a travel of 160mm. 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
When it comes to wheels, the 7500 bike is equipped with the 27.5″ aluminum model. The 27.5″ wheels are a great choice for smaller riders. However, the 27.5″ wheels are less forgiving than the 29″ wheels.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. KHS 7500 is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
KHS 7500 2014 is available in one size only. In conclusion, double-check its size to make sure it’s a good fit for you.
Dropper post
The KHS model is also equipped with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
