Overview of components
Fork material
The fork is made out of aluminum, which is a lighter material. However, it is not as tough, nor durable as steel is.
Wheels
The Coston DX Electric Bike 2022 e-bike is equipped with aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. After 700c wheels, 650b is the second most popular choice for road bikes. However, if speed is what you’re after, 700c wheels are a better fit.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Coston DX Electric Bike has Mechanical Disc brakes. They are much easier to maintain than hydraulic disk brakes. However, they don’t have the stopping power of hydraulic brakes.
