New 26 inch (ETRTO 559) carbon double front fork with V-brake pivots developed |
December 5th, 2007 | |
To enable an even lighter end result of our recumbents with 26 inch (ETRTO 559) front wheel, we have been developing for the last months a new type of carbon front fork. The fork is suitable for all Titanium and Cr-Mo models with 26 inch front fork and the M5 Carbon High Racer. It's an M5 design double front fork, connected to a carbon 1 1/8 threadless head tube. We have chosen for the aeroshape comparable to the earlier developed 28 inch (ETRTO 622) front fork for the High Racer. The V-brake pivots flow into the surface of the fork smoothly, thus avoiding the use of excess material. The weight of this highly stable 100% carbon MTB fork is just 545 grammes, being one of the lightest of it's type. The used type is carbon is 12 D in matted finish. Estimated availability mid-January 2008. Price will be equal to the 20 and 28 inch version. | ||
