Sprite iE Step Over components
Fork material
Sprite iE Step Over has an aluminum fork, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the e-bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Sprite iE Step Over model has 26″ aluminum wheels. These wheels give you great handling over your e-bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Raleigh Sprite iE Step Over has Mechanical Disc brakes installed. They deliver good performance and cost less than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
