Fork
The RockShox Revelation RC is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 150mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
The shock that’s installed on this bike is Rockshox Deluxe RT Trunnion w/Debonair, with a travel distance of 140mm. Bike rear shocks increase the riding comfort, and also give you more control over technical trails. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels size
The wheels on Sight A3 Womens 29″ are the 29″ aluminum type. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, the 29″ wheels will add a little more weight to the bike itself.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Sight A3 Womens 29″ comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In conclusion, make sure it fits you, or look for another model.
