Clarity 24 components
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Clarity 24 bike is equipped with the 24″ aluminum model. The 24″ wheels are a good fit for folding bikes, BMX, or children bikes. In conclusion, you can use them better on-road, and less on technical terrain.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Clarity 24 has Rim brakes. Rim brakes deliver an average performance overall. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
