Buy Mountain Bike Suspension Forks Affordably at the Bicycle Shop of starbike.com

The suspension fork is now a standard component of every full suspension bike and almost all hardtail mountain bikes. It ensures secure ground contact and better riding comfort.

Suspension forks are used almost exclusively on mountain bikes and trekking bikes. Although the front suspension technology has been known for a long time, it wasn’t until the mountain bike boom of the 1990s that it really took off.

To get the best performance out of your mountain bike, careful installation and subsequent adjustment of the suspension fork are essential.

The primary function of a suspension fork is to absorb and dampen the shocks encountered while riding. The shock energy is absorbed by the spring or air cartridge mounted in the suspension fork. Without proper damping, the suspension would uncontrollably return to its starting point. This would result in a jerky rebound, which could lead to poor handling of the bicycle, especially at higher speeds.

We carry suspension forks from manufacturers such as DT Swiss, Magura, Manitou, RockShox, and SR Suntour.
