Fork
This bike has the RST fork installed. The fork’s travel is 63mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Wheels
The wheels on Suede DX W (Pearl White/ Light Blue) are the 26″ aluminum type. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they are less forgiving when riding over obstacles such as bumps and roots.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Giant Suede DX W (Pearl White/ Light Blue) is equipped with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
