Overview of components
Fork material
city bike Single-speed 500 has a steel fork, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the city bike Single-speed 500 model has 700c aluminum wheels. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.

For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. ELOPS city bike Single-speed 500 has Rim brakes installed. Rim brakes deliver an average performance overall. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
