The braking system consists of SACCON ‘V-Brake’ brakes, fitted to both the front and rear, and the matching TEKTRO brake levers, which ensure reliable braking performance. The gear system is an 8-speed SHIMANO “Altus”, operated by the SHIMANO “Altus SL-M310” shifter, which enables precise and easy gear changes. The fork is an aluminium unicrown fork, which contributes to the bike’s stability.

Other features include the MARWI “SP-400” pedal set, a THUN bottom bracket and an aluminium crankset with 32 teeth and a length of 140 mm. Power is transmitted via a KMC “Z51” chain, whilst the cassette is a SHIMANO “HG31” with a range of 11–34 teeth. The handlebars are specially designed for teenagers and measure 540 mm in width, complemented by CONWAY “Junior” grips and a ONE Sport A-Head stem.

The rims are CONWAY hollow-wall “J 19” models, fitted with SCHWALBE “CX Comp” tyres in size 47-507 at both the front and rear. The hubs are made of aluminium and feature quick-release (QR) mechanisms for easy maintenance and wheel changes. The saddle is the CONWAY “Junior” model, mounted on a ONE Sport seatpost with a diameter of 27.2 mm. Overall, the Conway MS 240 rigid offers a well-thought-out package of components, suitable for young riders looking for a reliable and lightweight bike.
