Overview of components
Fork
This bike has the RockShox Recon Silver RL fork installed. The fork’s travel is 120mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Fork material
529 has an aluminum fork, so there won’t be much extra weight added to the bike. However, they are not so stiff as carbon forks are.
Wheels
When leaving the production line, the 529 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, these wheels are not ideal for smaller people.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The 529 comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Sizes
There are 4 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 158 cm – 199 cm (5.18 ft – 6.53 ft). In short, you can easily find one that suits you.
Dropper post
Every bike should have a dropper post, and this one does. If used correctly, a dropper post gives you more faith, maneuverability, and greater control over your bike.
