BUCKLOS 700C Carbon Fiber Gravel Road Bike Fork - QR 9mm/100 & 12mm Thru Axle, 1-1/8" Threadless Tapered Super Lightweight Front Fork for Cyclocross, Adventure & Commuting Bikes

Installed it on my gravel bike and wow what a difference. When I removed the original steel fork it felt like I was holding a dumbbell next to this. Installation was easy, if you have a straight head tube you’ll need an adapter that allows a tapered fork to a straight tube and also an expansion plug. Never use a star nut on a carbon fork or you’ll destroy it. The expander plug should be long enough to go through the area where your stem sits so when you tighten it you don’t crush the carbon tube. And you will need a fork cutting jig, and an adapter mount for the brake caliper. This fork makes riding the bike more pleasant due to the carbon absorbing most of the vibration from the gravel vs a steel fork which transfers all that shock/vibration up your arms, shoulders, and neck. Also, take it for a 1-3 mile test ride making sure everything is tight enough before taking on a real ride. The tube adapter, brake adapter, expander plug and cutting jig, you can get on Amazon for close to $60. So you’re looking at a total of $200 to have this on your bike. The difference I feel when riding is worth it
