Fork

Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this e-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 e-bike.
Wheels size
The wheels on Rook are the aluminum type. 650b wheels make a great choice if you want to sacrifice speed for comfort. However, they don’t perform so well when you go over bumps and obstacles.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Rook comes with Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
