Sugar 293 components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the RockShox Reba model. The travel on this model is 100mm. Bike forks are good shock absorbers and provide a smooth ride and a great experience. In short, you should always ensure you have a good fork when purchasing a bike.
Wheels
The Sugar 293 2005 bike is equipped with 29″ wheels when leaving the factory. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
