Moterra Neo EQ components
Fork
The Moterra Neo EQ comes factory-installed with the RockShox 35 Silver fork. This has a travel range of 150mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth 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, with a travel distance of 130mm. 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, always consider getting a bike that has a rear shock as well.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Moterra Neo EQ e-bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Cannondale Moterra Neo EQ is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
Moterra Neo EQ 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
The Cannondale model is also equipped with a dropper post. Needless to say, a dropper post will come in handy on climbs and descends. You’ll fall in love with it at first sight!
