JAKE 24 components
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the JAKE 24 model has 24″ aluminum wheels. The 24″ wheels are a good fit for folding bikes, BMX, or children bikes. In conclusion, they are great for flat ground or very easy trails.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The JAKE 24 has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, you could spend a little extra and get a bike that has hydraulic brakes.
