Fork material
The fork is made out of steel, which tends to be more flexible than carbon forks in general. However, a carbon fork is considerably lighter.
Wheels size
The wheels on Crossroads Sport Step-Through are the 700c aluminum type. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
Nothing is more important on a bike than its ability to brake properly. Specialized Crossroads Sport Step-Through is equipped with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.

Crossroads Sport Step-Through comes in 4 sizes, that range from 151 cm – 184 cm (4.95 ft – 6.04 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
