Overview of components
Fork material
Baby Maker has an aluminum fork, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the e-bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
The Baby Maker 2020 e-bike is equipped with 700c aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. There is no doubt, that 700c wheels are very popular on all road bike models. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This e-bike has Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
