Pique Advanced Pro 29 1 components
Fork
The Pique Advanced Pro 29 1 comes factory-installed with the Fox Performance Elite Float 32 fork. This has a travel range of 100mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is Fox Float DPS Performance Elite Remote, with a travel distance of 100mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. In short, if you want smooth rides, get a full-suspension bicycle.
Wheels size
The Pique Advanced Pro 29 1 2021 bike is equipped with 29″ carbon wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Liv Pique Advanced Pro 29 1 has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Sizes
Pique Advanced Pro 29 1 comes in 4 sizes, that range from 148 cm – 183 cm (4.86 ft – 6 ft). In conclusion, you won’t have a problem finding one that suits you.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
