This bike is equiped with Front: 26 x 1.95" Tioga Psycho K kevlar tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Matrix Swami, 32-hole. Trek equiped this exact model with Shimano Deore LX V-Brake brakes, Shimano Deore LX levers braking system and Front: System 2 suspension, Rear: Shimano STX-RC hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Trek used 6061 T6 aluminum material for the frame. System 1 high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Y 5 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Bontrager aluminum.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano STX-RC, 22/32/42 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-IG70 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Trek, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Deore LX RapidFire SL gear shift levers.
