MONTEREY LADIES components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has an aluminum one, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
The wheels on MONTEREY LADIES are the 700c aluminum type. There is no doubt, that 700c wheels are very popular on all road bike models. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Norco MONTEREY LADIES has Rim brakes installed. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
