Capitola components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the RST model. The travel on this model is 63mm. Bike forks are great for shock absorption and provide you with a smooth ride. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Wheels
The wheels on Capitola are the 26″ aluminum type. These wheels give you great handling over your bike. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The Capitola has Rim brakes. Slightly lighter than hydraulic brakes, rim brakes are a budget choice. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
This bike is available in 7 sizes. They vary from 158 cm – 189 cm (5.18 ft – 6.2 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
