Overview of components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the Fox Performance Elite Float 36 model. The travel on this model is 160mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Rear Shock
As for the rear shock, this e-bike has the RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ model, with a travel of 150mm. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the HECKLER GX AXS / Carbon C / 29 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, 29″ wheels will make your e-bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Santa Cruz HECKLER GX AXS / Carbon C / 29 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.
Dropper post
A dropper post is included with the HECKLER GX AXS / Carbon C / 29. 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.
