Kinesis Crosslight RC09 Carbon Cyclo Cross Forks
Kinesis have always lead the field in Cyclocross frame and fork design.
The latest RC09 fork is way out front again with it's super lightweight, 460g monocoque construction and radical leading edge blade shape.
The optional brake hanger coupled to the advanced blade shape, allows powerful, judder free braking that is just not possible with other manufacturers, outdated designs.
The forged alloy hanger keys and bolts to a specially shaped crown and eliminates the need for a steerer mounted hanger. This serves two important purposes;
1. It does away with the long drop of inner cable between the top of the headset and straddle cable. In standard 'cross fork designs, minute changes in length caused by flex in the fork under braking, cause resonance in this area that leads to judder in some circumstances [mostly on harder surfaces with larger frames and riders]. The use of a crown mounted hanger completely eliminates this problem.
2. It allows a lower stack height that is important in 'cross for short stretches of powerful climbing.
Steerer: 11/8”
Weight: 460g
Note: The RC09 comes without hanger as std. and it must be ordered separately
