Overview of components
Fork
The RockShox Reba is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 100mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the RockShox Monarch RT3 Solo Air with 3 Pos. Flood Gate Switch rear shock model, which has a travel of 100mm. Rear shocks improve riding comfort and give you greater control over all terrains. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
When it comes to wheels, the PRESCOTT bike is equipped with the 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The PRESCOTT comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
KHS PRESCOTT 2016 is available in one size only. In conclusion, make sure it fits you, or look for another model.
