​
INTENDED USE
​
The CROSS BLADE fork has been developed and tested for use in gravel and XC areas. The maximum system weight is 120 kg.
WHAT'S THE TRICK?
The slotted design of the fork crown not only looks cool. It also enables a very flexible modular system and offers the properties of a leaf spring. A good balance between suspension comfort and steering stiffness was achieved. With the CROSS BLADE TI up to 20mm spring travel is possible without sacrificing steering precision.
AERO KIT
​
contains a LEZYNE air pump, a matching compression spring and an EXTRALITE Ultrastar expander. This means you can make perfect use of the space in the right fork leg and have always a strong pump that is rattle-free and protected from dirt.
