Fat Possum XT components
Fork
The Fox is included from the factory. It has a travel distance of 140mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
Bike rear shocks increase the riding comfort, and also give you more control over technical trails. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the Fat Possum XT model has 26″ aluminum wheels. Being a little smaller, these wheels will fit both small and tall riders. However, they provide less traction than 29″ wheels do.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Trek Fat Possum XT has Hydraulic Disc brakes installed. These kinds of brakes are among the most popular models used on bikes. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
