Fluid FS 6.2 components
Fork
The Fluid FS 6.2 comes factory-installed with the RockShox Recon Silver RL fork. This has a travel range of 120mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, which doesn’t add too much extra weight to the bike. However, it is not so stiff as steel or carbon forks are.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the Rockshox Monarch R HVI rear shock model, which has a travel of 120mm. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. To sum up, get a full-suspension bike if you want the smoothest rides.
Wheels size
The Fluid FS 6.2 2017 bike is equipped with 26″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they are less forgiving when riding over obstacles such as bumps and roots.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Fluid FS 6.2 comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the Fluid FS 6.2. If used correctly, a dropper post gives you more faith, maneuverability, and greater control over your bike.
