WCS Carbon Gravel Cross Fork
Size: 12mm TA
Description
Built from life and ready for your drop bar off-road adventures, this full monocoque carbon fork delivers precision and confidence while offering stability and comfort along some of the more rugged terrain you'll encounter. The Ritchey WCS Carbon Gravel Cross Fork features a full UD monocoque carbon construction and ample clearance to uphold the true title of a gravel fork or dominate the rigors of cyclocross. The UD carbon construction permits a robust product that can withstand the abuse of gravel and dirty rides, yet keeps the over all weight down to a impressive 415 grams (un-cut steerer). A clever dropout insert design allows for both 12mm and 15mm thru axles, so the fork can work with both axle standards with proper insert system and thru-axle diameter. It ships as a 12mm, but the 15mm kit and axle can be purchased separately.
The WCS Carbon Gravel Cross Fork features the now-standard Flat Mount interface for modern disc calipers and simple externa hydraulic housing routing round out the package. One of our favorite expanding carbon steerer compression plugs is included. The Ritchey WCS Cross Gravel Fork is ideal for long distance gravel events, your local cyclocross series, spontaneous weekend adventures and everything in between.
