Overview of components
Fork material
Belleville has a steel fork, so, it can add some extra weight to your bike. However, steel is a pretty tough and durable material.
Wheels size
The wheels on Belleville are the 700c aluminum type. There is no doubt, that 700c wheels are very popular on all road bike models. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Belleville comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
