As for the rear shock, this bike has the Fox Van R Coil shock model, with a travel of 150mm. 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.
