Habit Neo 2 components
Fork
This e-bike has the RockShox 35 Gold RL fork installed. The fork’s travel is 140mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. To sum up, when buying a bicycle, make sure you get a fork that is capable of delivering decent travel.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this e-bike is RockShox Deluxe Select+ RT, with a travel distance of 130mm. Rear shocks offer better comfort, better traction, and better cornering. This allows for quicker riding on rough roads and trails. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Habit Neo 2 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. 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 Neo 2 has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
Habit Neo 2 comes in 4 sizes, that range from 157 cm – 195 cm (5.15 ft – 6.4 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. Therefore, climbing or descending will be a breeze.
