The 75mm-travel fork features a mechanical lockout for more efficiency when climbing. The A1 Premium Aluminum frame features fender and rack braze-ons, forged dropouts for strength, and a kickstand mount for quick and easy parking. The CT 700c rims are double-walled for strength and feature machined sidewalls for a better braking surface. The Shimano Deore 9-speed rear derailleur uses low-friction pivots for precise, effortless shifts.
it's a good road bike. Riding on the sidewalk however is annoyingly bumpy... I'm pretty happy with it though. Looks good, gear shifting is a dream compared to my old steel-frame bike =P
