Fork
The Tiburon Stepthru comes factory-installed with the RST NEON fork. This has a travel range of 50mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels
The Tiburon Stepthru 2009 bike is equipped with 700c aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels are the most used kind for road bikes in general. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Gary Fisher Tiburon Stepthru has Rim brakes installed. Rim brakes deliver an average performance overall. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
There are 3 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 151 cm – 179 cm (4.95 ft – 5.87 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
