The Trail 490 is our full carbon 29er fork, designed to correct for up to ~120mm without steepening the head tube angle. But is carbon really OK for trail use? Well, this one is... at 720g uncut (sans thru axle) and massive, bulky tubing, you couldn't ask for a burlier, stiffer rigid fork.
Looking to run 29+ in this fork? You're clear for some of the narrower setups but most 3'' tires don't clear.
Please note: this fork is now available only in matte finish, rather than glossy as pictured.
