Ride 4000 components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a carbon one, so, its weight is considerably lighter than one made out of steel. However, they cost a bit more than steel forks.
Wheels size
The wheels on Ride 4000 are the 700c aluminum type. These wheels are the most used kind for road bikes in general. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Merida Ride 4000 is equipped with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
