WTD: CX Fork

Posted on
  • I need a fork for a Pompino with clearance for 32s and Guards.

    I've been looking at a new Surly Cross Check or Soma CX but thought I'd see what was around before pulling the trigger:

    • 1 1/8 Ahead with around 250mm of Steerer.
    • V brake bosses
    • Rack and Guard bosses
    • 400mm ish A2C
    • Etc
    
  • I have a new kaffenback fork, I'll check it against your list.. steerer uncut..

  • Great stuff. Thank you.

  • Quick check.. 235mm steerer and 365mm axle to crown.. I'll stick a wheel in later with 32mm tyres and show the clearance.. PS.. image above is 32mm tyres

  • i have a Kinesis alloy/carbon forks with canti mounts and guard mounts, 400mm A2C, but the steerer is cut at just under 200mm

  • Thanks, the steerer is too short for me though.

  • Got a brown Pompino one from an XL frame of a Planet X carbon (alloy steerer)

  • From reading around I don't think a pompino fork clears 32s with Guards?

  • It doesn’t have a mudguard at the moment but from a rough measurement the current tyre is 40 so would have thought 32 plus mudguard would work it but don’t really know

  • Ah, further reading indicates there might be more than one version. How much steerer does it have?

  • Can confirm when/if it stops chucking it down but it’s an XL frame with plenty of spacers so think most likely uncut steerer
