Overview of components
Fork material
Contessa 24 has an aluminum fork, which doesn’t add too much extra weight to the bike. However, it is not so stiff as steel or carbon forks are.
Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the Contessa 24 bike is equipped with the 24″ aluminum model. The 24″ wheels are a good fit for folding bikes, BMX, or children bikes. In conclusion, they are great for flat ground or very easy trails.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Scott Contessa 24 is equipped with Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes are also very popular, and a lot cheaper than hydraulic disk brakes. However, they don’t have the stopping power of hydraulic brakes.
