The Pride Racing Matrix Tapered Carbon BMX Fork-24"x1 1/8-1.5"-Orange/Gun Metal features a sophisticated two-part construction, meticulously crafted to optimize strength, stiffness, and impact resistance: • Advanced Carbon Fiber Legs : The fork legs are constructed from 100% HM Toray® carbon, renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. This premium carbon fiber is synergistically combined with an internal Polymer Matrix Interface (PMI) structure. This innovative integration significantly enhances overall stiffness and structural integrity, ensuring precise handling and efficient power transfer. Different types of Toray carbon fibers are strategically utilized, each selected for its specific properties to optimally manage lateral loads, torsional forces, and impacts encountered during aggressive BMX racing. • High-Strength Aluminum Steerer : The steerer tube is precision-machined from 7075-T6 Aluminum, a high-strength aerospace-grade alloy. This choice guarantees outstanding structural integrity and long-term durability, providing a reliable connection between your handlebars and front wheel. Engineered for Excellence Designed with the competitive BMX racer in mind, the Pride Matrix fork meets the stringent EN 16054 standard , ensuring top-tier safety and performance compliance.
