Off-roaders are rejoicing now that Ritchey has launched its latest WCS Carbon Adventure Fork, not only smoothing out the terrain for gravelers and bikepackers alike, but also offering mounting points galore for racks, fenders and even dynamo routing
“The best adventures happen once the challenge has been accepted. For most of his life, Tom Ritchey has invented bicycles and components that exceed expectations. This time Tom created the Mountain Adventure Fork with rack mounts for your gear, a fender mount to repel grime, and three multi-purpose mounts on the fork blades for stowing essentials. Should you be tempted to cycle the world or session on local trails, the Mountain Adventure Fork is suspension-corrected for hardtail frames like the Ritchey P-29er or the Ultra. Fast, lightweight, and comfortable, this fork is for sharpening your singletrack skills or going the (ultra) distance,” says Ritchey.
The fork features a 483 mm axle-to-crown measurement, an integrated 45-degree crown race, 50mm of rake, BOOST 110x15mm thru-axle spacing and a drilled fork crown that retails for $695.00.
