Rear Shock
The Define 130 2 has a rear shock with a travel of 130mm. The model FOX FLOAT DPS Performance is the one installed in this bike. 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, always consider getting a bike that has a rear shock as well.
Wheels size
As for the wheels, NS Define 130 2 2021, has a 29″ aluminum model. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
Stopping the bike when needed, it’s essential for your safety. This bike has Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Dropper post
NS Define 130 2 includes a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
