The suspension system that the Hyper uses is simply a shock absorber that allows for long, comfortable rides on smooth surfaces. The Hyper mountain bike’s suspension system is very different from the typical suspension systems found on many other hybrid road and mountain bike systems. The Alloy MTB handlebar was wide and gave optimum control for the rider when riding through fast paced flat trails and also when maneuvering through sharp turns. The stopping power on this Hardtail MTB is taken care of by a pair of JAK branded Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes were of good quality and the rotors and disc plates were powerful in stopping amidst traffic and even on flat muddy surfaces.
At 6’3″ – the bike was even adjusted to the comfortable riding position for me. It has a dual steel suspension frame (front fork shocks and strut on the frame located under the seat area) that provides a comfortable ride for the 26′ Hyper Shocker Bike, even on off-road surfaces. Suspension steel frame with suspension fork Front and rear linear pull brakes. The standard mountain bike seat for the highest riders is far too narrow and it may lead to problems on rocky terrain with speed. The Acrolt Hyper 27.5 is a Hardtail Alloy bicycle in this brand’s MTB range. The frame comes with a nicely slanting top tube which ensured increased standover height for the rider which makes it safe for the rider on bumpy surfaces.
Acrolt has used Shimano brand derailleurs in this MTB model. The Acrolt Hyper 27.5 comes equipped with a 7-Speed Shimano Tourney at the rear along with Shimano Tourney 3-Speed at the front. The Shimano drivetrain on this MTB was both quick and smooth in shifting with no lag experienced during the test ride.
From your fingers (grip) to the forearms, to the calves, every muscle works in synergy when you pedal away. The Pandemic has single-handedly managed to revive cycling as a mainstream mobility option. Cycling blows your rigorous everyday commute out of the water.
Designed for the average rider, the hyper bike seat is wider than the average mountain bike for a smoother ride, preventing the driver from feeling too tight or claustrophobic in raw terrain. The Back tire isn’t fitted in place correctly and is slightly too high up on the rear tire axle shaft. It appears to be tightened in place and secure by the nut screw, but it creeps me out a bit that if the nut were to unscrew a bit the tire would fly out…. I tried to unscrew it and snap it in place, but the machine that put the nuts on really did a job and got that thing on really tight, so I decided to leave it alone.
Before I get into all the cons with the bike, I will first tell about the pros. The most obvious pro is the price, this bike is very cheap and affordable for what you get in the box and for most purposes of daily commutes to the store or to work, it will do perfectly. So far I have owned this bike for close to a month, so I will tell my thoughts about all the pros and cons I have found. The bike is easy to ride as long as you adjust the seat, oil the chain, and keep the bike maintained, you shouldn’t have too many problems with it straight out the box.
The suspension lock-out helps in making the fork rigid and improve acceleration on flat surfaces. Come ride time, the 20-inch wheels with the 1.5” tires bring comfort and stability that are generally not the USP of folding bikes. There’s an 11-speed gear suite with a 54-tooth chain ring for tackling the occasional terrain change.
