Overview of components
Fork
The Ignite C GX Eagle comes factory-installed with the RockShox Recon Silver RL fork. This has a travel range of 100mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. To sum up, when buying a bicycle, make sure you get a fork that is capable of delivering decent travel.
Fork material
Ignite C GX Eagle has an aluminum fork, which is a lighter material. However, it is not as tough, nor durable as steel is.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Ignite C GX Eagle model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. 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. Ridley Ignite C GX Eagle is equipped with Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Sizes
This bike has one size only, so it might not fit you. In conclusion, double-check its size to make sure it’s a good fit for you.
