Wheels size
The wheels on C29 Base Gent are the 29″ aluminum type. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Corratec C29 Base Gent has Mechanical Disc brakes installed. They deliver good performance and cost less than hydraulic disk brakes. However, with hydraulic disk brakes, you have the ultimate braking power!
