PRIDE Apex Tapered Fork

Discover the Pride Apex Tapered Fork.

After many months of extensive research and development, including testing on laboratories and world cup tracks, the APEX Carbon Tapered fork was specially designed to meet the need of the most demanding athletes. Test was rigorously validated by Jeremy Rencurel during several months of intensive use on the world cup circuit.

Its innovative design offers superior rigidity for unparalleled responsiveness on the track. Every curve and angle of the APEX is engineered to reduce drag, optimize stiffness, and maximize speed. The unique design of the APEX aims to optimize structural rigidity. The selected materials and specific geometry work together to ensure efficient energy transfer from the rider.

The internal construction of the APEX Carbon Tapered fork is tailored and optimized to provide significant strength. It also utilizes different types of carbon fibers based on their specific properties to best manage different types of loads in the areas where they occur – such as lateral forces, torsion, and impacts. Its steerer tube is made of 7075-T6 aluminum, a renowned alloy for its high strength. This feature not only ensures great structural strength but also increased durability.
