HUDSON EASY components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a steel one, so, it can add some extra weight to your bike. However, steel is a pretty tough and durable material.
Wheels size
The wheels on HUDSON EASY are the 26″ aluminum type. Being a little smaller, these wheels will fit both small and tall riders. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Jamis HUDSON EASY 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.
