Overview of components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this frame has a carbon one, so, it’s a great addition to the frame’s value. However, carbon forks should be regularly inspected for damage because even the smallest crack could cause the fork to fall apart.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The S-Works Shiv Module has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
Sizes
This frame is available in 5 sizes. They vary from 156 cm – 195 cm (5.12 ft – 6.4 ft). In conclusion, it won’t take much to find one that’s right for you.
