Lauf GRIT Gravel Suspension Fork

Season:2019

Brand:Lauf

Code:LA-FORK-KY100

Quirky? No doubt.

Supremely comfortable and capable? Unquestionably.

With a revolutionary design, the Lauf Grit Gravel Suspension Fork challenges both traditional rigid and suspension forks. Keeping styling to a unique minimum, Lauf have ensured this fork will have your bike standing out in the crowd, and forge through long rides with greater efficiency. Ideal for the avid rider who enjoys tackling an array of gravel and cyclocross terrains, this high quality and robust build dampens out road buzz and choppy surfaces flawlessly.
 
Smoother and lighter in comparison to conventional forks, this unique design is focused around replicating the weight and reliability of a rigid fork, whilst offering greater traction and absorption. Capable of tackling an array of terrains, the suspension springs are moulded out of military grade S2 glassfibre, resistant to high impacts. Offering 30mm of progressive travel, these springs are sensitive to small bumps and prevent the risk of bottoming out for increasingly comfortable rides.
 
Eliminating internal "moving parts", this extraordinary fork removes internal springs, seals and air pistons, resulting in a lightweight construction that requires zero maintenance. The monocoque carbon fibre construction has been vigorously shock tested without showing signs of wear and tear. Exceptionally strong and rigid, these carbon stanchions provide long lasting durability and a stiff platform to withstand powerful braking forces presented by disc brakes, and aid in efficient power transfers.
 
Accommodating both wheel sizes of 700c and 27.5 inches, with tyre widths up to 42c and 2.1 inches respectively, this fork is a fantastic option for the dedicated rider wanting to challenge long distance adventures with unbeatable comfort and efficiency.

The Lauf GRIT Gravel fork is the perfect addition to any gravel bike - or to "gravel-up" any CX bike. It makes the bike more capable and more comfortable. While remaining light and lightning fast, making your next adventure the most fun yet!

  • S2 Springs:The springs on the Lauf Grit are made of military spec S2 glassfiber that is extremely tough on hits and flexible in the direction of the travel. The springs have been "shocked" in Lauf test lab over 1.000.000 times reaching 20mm amplitude every time.
  • Progressive: The Lauf Grit has 30mm of travel with progressive spring rate. This means that the further the fork compresses the springs become stiffer. This helps keeping the fork from bottoming out while staying sensitive to small bumps.
  • Small Bump Performance: The Lauf forks are designed to maintain the lightness and reliability of rigid forks while offering absorption and traction in small bumps that conventional suspension forks can't match. The stiction and high unsprung weight of conventional suspension forks make them unable to keep up with high-speed input as brilliantly as the Lauf Grit.
  • Zero Maintenance: The design of the Lauf forks is based around eliminating all "moving parts" and therefore friction and maintenance. Instead of looking for wear and tear you can focus on clocking more miles and creating more smiles. Just ride!
  • All Weather: The Lauf Grit works flawlessly in all weather conditions. Whether you find yourself in the freezing Antarctica or the scorching Sahara. Grab your rig and just ride!
