Forks
There are two different types of forks that vary in styles and
dimensions. One type is a rigid fork (Figure 1) consisting of sta -
tionary tubing with curved blades. The other type is a
suspension fork (Figure 2) consisting of inner stanchion tubes
riding on elastomers or springs inside of a straight outer fork
leg. This mechanism acts as a shock absorber with a specified
amount of travel that varies between models. Some suspension
forks are not adjustable and are very difficult to disassemble. If
service is needed on a suspension fork, consult a professional
bicycle repair technician.
do not attempt to disassemble a suspension fork
yourself. consult a professional bicycle repair
technician.
If your bike is equipped with a suspension fork, check that the
fork compresses and rebounds smoothly. To do this, place the
fork dropouts against the ground, push and release the handle-
bar. The fork will generally compress 1-2” and rebound quickly.
Most elastomer type forks will gradually soften with use.
