It will fit for a ride in the style of cross-country: the conquest of long rises and descents, skating on primers, paths, small natural obstacles in the form of bumps, branches, potholes and other things.

Frame and cushioning

Let's start with the frame. It is made of a special aluminum alloy in this bicycle. This material is much better than ordinary steel, since it is somewhat lighter and does not lend itself to destructive corrosion action. The geometry of the construction is the most ordinary. The size of the eyebolt should be specified, since they are available in several versions. From sixteen to twenty-one inches.

Depreciation is cheap from the company "Sun Tour". This is a spring-elastomeric fork that weighs a lot, but benefits from it a little. Yes, it softens some falls, but does not take away the vibrations, as it should be in a normal suspension.

This is a common indicator for a mountain bike, but some models of "Stealth" can see a 24-inch rim. Tires specially stand wide with an aggressive tread, so that there is a better grip on the surface.

Front and rear brakes are disc brakes. Very often even low-cost models of mountain bicycles began to put cheap rotary systems. It is now so fashionable. What is the plus of brakes of this type? They do not stick a layer of dirt, if you ride in bad rainy weather, the quality of braking does not depend on the curvature of the rim, which often happens. These advantages and made this design so popular. The diameter of the disk is one hundred and sixty millimeters. Such brakes are quite suitable for ordinary skating.

The number of speeds is twenty-one. There are three large asterisks in front, and a cassette of seven in the back. Everything is powered by a chain drive. The equipment is not eternal, therefore, when the chain and stars become worn, they will need to be replaced immediately. Clear signs of chain wear are breakthroughs.
