Overview of components

Fork

The Trail SL Women’s 3 comes factory-installed with the RockShox Judy Silver TK fork. This has a travel range of 100mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. To sum it all, when buying a bike, ensure that you look for a fork capable of decent travel.

Wheels

When it comes to wheels, the Trail SL Women’s 3 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, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.

Brakes

Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Cannondale Trail SL Women’s 3 is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
