Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a carbon one, so, it’s a great addition to the 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
The Avow Advanced 2020 bike is equipped with 700c aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. There is no doubt, that 700c wheels are very popular on all road bike models. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes

Avow Advanced comes in 3 sizes, that range from 151 cm – 179 cm (4.95 ft – 5.87 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
