Overview of components
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the Advance Disc bike is equipped with the 26″ aluminum model. Being a little smaller, these wheels will fit both small and tall riders. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Gary Fisher Advance Disc is equipped with Mechanical Disc brakes. They are much easier to maintain than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
Sizes
Advance Disc comes in 5 sizes, that range from 156 cm – 195 cm (5.12 ft – 6.4 ft). In short, you can easily find one that suits you.
