Overview of components
Fork
This e-bike has the Suntour XCR 34 fork installed. The fork’s travel is 100mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Quadriga DUO CX5 Wave 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, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the e-bike itself.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Kettler Quadriga DUO CX5 Wave is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
