Tacoma II components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the Zoom model. The travel on this model is 100mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. To sum up, when buying a bicycle, make sure you get a fork that is capable of delivering decent travel.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Tacoma II model has 27.5″ aluminum wheels. 27.5″ wheels are a mixture between 29″ wheels and 26″ wheels. However, the 27.5″ wheels are less forgiving than the 29″ wheels.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Tacoma II comes with Mechanical Disc brakes. They are much easier to maintain than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
