Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the CURVE 14 model has 14″ aluminum wheels. The 14″ wheels are a good fit for folding bikes, BMX, or children bikes. In conclusion, you can use them better on-road, and less on technical terrain.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Opus CURVE 14 has Coaster brakes installed. Coaster brakes are among the oldest brake types you can find on a bike. However, if your chain falls off or snaps, your coaster brakes won’t function anymore.
