Fork
The Edict 5 comes factory-installed with the SunTour RAIDON fork. This has a travel range of 120mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
Felt Edict 5 bike has the Rock Shox Monarch R model installed, and has a travel of 100mm. Rear shocks improve riding comfort and give you greater control over all terrains. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Edict 5 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, these wheels are not ideal for smaller people.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Felt Edict 5 has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
