Simple Three (Black/White) components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a steel one, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Simple Three (Black/White) model has 26″ aluminum wheels. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Giant Simple Three (Black/White) has Coaster brakes installed. These brakes are pretty efficient, and they’re not so pricey. However, they have flaws, especially if the chain falls off.
