The champion's fork XC | MARATHON RACE | AXON RC
The AXON fork is our state of the art racing fork. The Axon has been the focus of continuous technological advances during its life-cycle, benefitting from magnesium lowers, hollow forged crowns, the electrical lockout system and the patented Q-LOC quick release thru axle system. Our latest development is another giant leap forward in terms of the inner damping technology as well as the outer design. The bottom case is made of carbon which saves about 63g and the new cartridge system saves another 60g. In total we tip the scales at a mere 1500 g including the new Q-loc titanium axle (69g). The AXON RC carbon suspension fork is also available with CTS (conical tapered steerer). All our technological pioneering is race proven; the AXON RC fork, is currently being used by our French XC champion and World Cup leader in U23 category Julie Bresset from the BH SRSUNTOUR team.
A motor actuator within the rightside stanchion of the fork locks or unlocks the compression. It needs 0,5 sec to switch to ON or OFF position. The battery and the controller (brain) are within the steerer. The battery type is Lithium CR 123A. The controller (brain) has a vibration sensor which automatically switches off the electric flow, if during 5 minutes no shock has been given to the fork. The lifetime of the battery is approx. 50.000 switches.
