Overview of components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has an aluminum one, which is a lighter material. However, it is not as tough, nor durable as steel is.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the 9th District model has 700c aluminum wheels. 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
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Trek 9th District is equipped with Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, you could spend a little extra and get a bike that has hydraulic brakes.
