New forks on the block. The prototype stages of Tioga's Progressive Front-end System
Like it, dislike it, learn more about it. FATBMX caught up with Tioga to get the inside scoop on the new Progressive Front-end System they've been working on. Stiffer and lighter means faster?
What made Tioga look into working on the fork area of the BMX bike?
Tioga: Shortly after the London Games, we had our annual product dissection sessions with some of our Elite riders, gathering feedback and picking their brains about product needs and improvements. During one of these discussions, some riders shared that they occasionally experience excess flex on their bike--they couldn’t quite pinpoint where, but explained that they detected some levels of flex during gate starts, or when cornering, landing a jump, and pumping over rhythm sections. Our engineering team took note of this, knowing how detrimental excess flex can be in a race, and the seed was planted.
