SANTIAGO Ladies components
Fork material
SANTIAGO Ladies has a steel fork, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels size
The SANTIAGO Ladies 2008 bike is equipped with 26″ aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The SANTIAGO Ladies has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
Norco SANTIAGO Ladies 2008 is available in one size only. In conclusion, make sure it fits you, or look for another model.
