As Fyxation continues to expand their product line, more and more of their parts no longer fit the “fixie” mold. That’s great news for anyone looking for budget minded parts that still have a lot of features. Parts like their new Sparta All Road carbon fork. Inspired by the Elroy Sparta Trail in Wisconsin, the fork has clearance for a 42mm tire and could be a great addition to your fat tire road bike – especially if you’re still running a straight 1 1/8″ steerer…
Currently, the All Road fork is only offered in a straight 1 1/8″ aluminum steerer, but a 1.5″ tapered steerer is on the way. Vital numbers include a 400mm axle to crown, 45mm rake, and a 12 x 100mm thru axle dropout with an included quick release thru axle. The weight is on the heavy side at 747g, but that’s understandable once you realize this fork sells for just $299. It’s also still quite a bit lighter than a lot of the aluminum or steel forks on a number of adventure road bikes. While the Sparta is flat mount brake compatible, it’s still compatible with standard disc calipers with the correct adapter.
Equipped with rack and fender mounts, the fork also includes braze ons for cage mounts including the Blackburn Outpost Cargo cages, on the side of the legs. Compatible with 700c or 650b road plus set ups, the forks are available now.
