This bike is equiped with Front: 20 x 1 1/8" IRC Roadlite EX tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Sun Rims M14A, 36-hole. Rans equiped this exact model with Shimano Deore LX M-System brakes, Tektro RBP-286A levers braking system and Shimano Alivio hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Rans used 4130 chromoly material for the frame. Rans V-Bar high strength material is used on the handlebar of this V-Rex to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Rans V-Riser.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Deore LX, 24/36/46 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Rans, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Grip Shift SRT-600 gear shift levers.
