Overview of components
Fork
The STEREO HYBRID 140 HPC RACE 625 29 comes factory-installed with the RockShox 35 Gold RL fork. This has a travel range of 140mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the RockShox Deluxe Select rear shock model, which has a travel of 140mm. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the STEREO HYBRID 140 HPC RACE 625 29 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, 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. CUBE STEREO HYBRID 140 HPC RACE 625 29 has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Dropper post
The CUBE model is also equipped with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
