Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the TOWN HYBRID Pro 500 Trapeze e-bike is equipped with the 700c aluminum model. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This e-bike has Hydraulic Rim brakes. They are a bit expensive, and don’t deliver such a great performance. In short, search for a bike that has hydraulic brakes, as they deliver way better performance.
