2007 Forks.

Here’s the info on the new forks. This is the first top-to-bottom redesign since 2003.

New legs. New dropouts. New steerer tubes. New pre-load bolts.

Easily our best forks to date.

The 2007 Dirt Fork has gone on an 8 ounce diet and is now lighter than the 2006 Race Fork. The 2007 Race Fork sheds 4 ounces and hovers in the 2 pound range. We are also happy to announce the introduction of the new Freestyle Fork. Adam Banton and a few others have used this basic configuration for the last few years. It's a Race steerer tube and legs combined with Dirt Fork dropouts and brake mounts.

The 07 Race and Dirt Forks are shipping to distributors now. Freestyle Forks and info on the Flatland Forks with be available soon. Thanks for reading.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The 2007 41-Thermal forks are the lightest and strongest traditional-style* forks we’ve ever made. Thanks to our commitment to using the best technology available, the strength and durability of our forks has been improved by a significant margin - while keeping the product’s overall weight to its absolute minimum. Manufactured at an all-new, precision dedicated facility for 2007, the 41-Thermal process itself has also been refined to thoroughly maximize performance.

41-Thermal products have been guaranteed for life since 1999 because we know how durable they are. We proudly stand behind them because eight years of continuous laboratory and real-world testing doesn’t lie. If you ever damage a 41-Thermal product while you’re riding, simply send it back and it will be replaced by one of the quickest and most reliable product warranty services in BMX.

7075-T6 Pre-load Bolt

Totally re-designed. Made to match the threading system in the Classic Forks. Incredibly short and light, the bolt is now as flush with the upper surface of the stem as possible. The bolt’s "smile" through-hole and offset dual 8 and 6mm hex-key slots greatly simplify the task of adjusting the headset, fork and front brake cables. The cable lug easily passes through the bolt’s opening.
