Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Victoria model has 26″ aluminum wheels. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.

We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Victoria comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
Sizes
This bike is available in 2 sizes. They vary from 150 cm – 180 cm (4.92 ft – 5.91 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
