2013 X-Fusion Trace TL2

This 34mm stanchion fork could be the solution for riders seeking a stiffer front end on their 29ers. It uses a "uni-crown," which is a one-piece crown and steerer tube that is tooled down then forged. This creates a fork that is said to be 50% stiffer front to back compared to the standard press-in solution. The fork also features the RL2 damper, which allows for a simple on/off lockout.
