Fork
The FUTOUR E610FX WAVE comes factory-installed with the RST fork. This has a travel range of mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Fork material
The fork on this e-bike is made out of carbon, so, it’s a great addition to the e-bike’s value. However, carbon forks should be regularly inspected for damage because even the smallest crack could cause the fork to fall apart.
Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the FUTOUR E610FX WAVE e-bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. With 29″ wheels, bumps will feel lighter and you’ll gain more speed on descends, compared to smaller wheel-sized bikes. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the e-bike itself.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Ideal FUTOUR E610FX WAVE has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
