Overview of components
Fork
The G16 Shimano XT comes factory-installed with the RockShox Lyrik fork. This has a travel range of 180mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the EXT Storia LOK rear shock model, which has a travel of 155mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the G16 Shimano XT model has 27.5″ aluminum wheels. 27.5″ wheels are a mixture between 29″ wheels and 26″ wheels. However, the overall traction of 27.5″ wheels is lower than 29″ wheels.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The G16 Shimano XT comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
