Overview of components
Fork
The RockShox 35 Gold RL is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 140mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Rear Shock
The Sensor Comp has a rear shock with a travel of 130mm. The model RockShox Deluxe Select+ RT is the one installed in this bike. 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, if you want smooth rides, get a full-suspension bicycle.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Sensor Comp model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, these wheels are not ideal for smaller people.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Sensor Comp comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In short, make sure you double-check if it fits you.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the Sensor Comp. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
