Overview of components
Fork
The Habit LT 2 comes factory-installed with the RockShox Lyrik fork. This has a travel range of 150mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the RockShox Super Deluxe Select rear shock model, which has a travel of 140mm. 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, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels
The wheels on Habit LT 2 are the 29″ aluminum type. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, these wheels are not ideal for smaller people.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Habit LT 2 has 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
This bike is available in 5 sizes. They vary from 152 cm – 195 cm (4.99 ft – 6.4 ft). In conclusion, finding one for you shouldn’t be a problem.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. Needless to say, a dropper post will come in handy on climbs and descends. You’ll fall in love with it at first sight!
