FORKS

A word about forks:  The fork on a bicycle is the leading edge of your ride; if it is not in line it will track the bike so that you have two separate gyroscopic planes.  Your wheels will want to go their separate ways, especially on fast downhills, where a shimmy may be noticed.  My forks are made to an exacting standard through a three step alignment process that results in plus or minus 0.25 mm tolerance. I am very proud of that.

Both road & cross forks are raked in a low placed arc for that classic look and superior ride quality.

True Temper NCO tapered fork blades are standard for raked forks.
