T-700 components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has an aluminum one, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the T-700 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

These brakes are pretty rare, and you will find them on very few bike models. In short, search for a bike that has hydraulic brakes, as they deliver way better performance.
