Overview of components
Fork material
The fork on this bike is made out of steel, which tends to be more flexible than carbon forks in general. However, a carbon fork is considerably lighter.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Roll Sport EQ – Low-Entry model has aluminum wheels. After 700c wheels, 650b is the second most popular choice for road bikes. However, they don’t perform so well when you go over bumps and obstacles.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Roll Sport EQ – Low-Entry has Mechanical Disc brakes. They are much easier to maintain than hydraulic disk brakes. However, performance-wise there is room for improvement.
Sizes
Roll Sport EQ – Low-Entry comes in 3 sizes, that range from 158 cm – 187 cm (5.18 ft – 6.14 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
