Opus Silk bike review

Opus produced the Silk bike in 2008 and can be classified as a Mountain bike bicycle.
Silk bike is available in many sizes such as Xsmall , small and medium .
Opus Mountain bike Silk can be found in a few colors, among these colors Anodized White .
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.00" Geax Arrojo tires while the rims are manufactured by Mavic XM 117. Opus equiped this exact model with Shimano BR-485 with 160mm rotor brakes, Shimano levers braking system and Formula disc hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Opus used Triple Butted 7005 Aluminum material for the frame. Ora AL-027 high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Silk to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Ora 2D.
For the smoothest biking experience TruVativ Five D is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano HG53-9 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Opus, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Deore gear shift levers.
