This bike is equiped with IRC tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic X222. Dean equiped this exact model with Rhino linear-pull brakes, Shimano Deore LX levers braking system and Shimano Deore LX hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Dean used 3Al/2.5V titanium material for the frame. Rhino high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Discovery Expert SID SL to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Dean Aluminum.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Deore LX is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG72 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Dean, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Deore LX RapidFire SL gear shift levers.
