Overview of components
Fork
The Fox Performance Elite Float 34 is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 130mm. Bike forks absorb the shocks and give you a smooth and pleasant ride. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Rear Shock
From the factory, it comes with the FOX Float DPS Performance Elite rear shock model, which has a travel of 120mm. Bike rear shocks increase the riding comfort, and also give you more control over technical trails. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Skeen Trail 10.0 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. With 29″ wheels, bumps will feel lighter and you’ll gain more speed on descends, compared to smaller wheel-sized bikes. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Radon Skeen Trail 10.0 is equipped 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.
Dropper post
Radon Skeen Trail 10.0 comes with 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.
