This bike is equiped with 26 x 1.95" Maxxis tires and Shuhn Lih stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alex MP-19, 36-hole. Novara equiped this exact model with Shimano Altus brakes, Shimano Altus levers braking system and Shimano RM-40 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Novara used Chromoly, double-butted material for the frame. Alico A-110 high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Alight to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Tahoma Sonne IV.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Alivio, 24/34/42 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC HG-50 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Novara, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Altus EZ Fire gear shift levers.
