Riprock Coaster 16 components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a steel one, which is tougher than carbon in the case of an impact. However, it can add some extra weight to the bike.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Riprock Coaster 16 model has 16″ aluminum wheels. The 16″ 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. Specialized Riprock Coaster 16 is equipped with Coaster brakes. These brakes are pretty efficient, and they’re not so pricey. However, if your chain falls off or snaps, your coaster brakes won’t function anymore.
