Specifically developed for the rigours gravel riding, this versatile suspension fork features 30mm straight wall aluminium upper tubes for maximum strength and durability on every mile. RockShox has also equipped this model with magnesium lower legs for additional stiffness, while also keeping its overall weight reduced. This means that riders will enjoy its superior strength to weight ratio wherever their next adventure takes them.
Solo Air Spring and Charger Race Day Damper: Whether you’re wanting to explore the countryside back roads further or planning an epic weekend gravel adventure, this fork is kitted out with some of RockShox’s finest technologies to make the ride comfortable, smoother and more rider-tuned. Its Solo Air spring is tuned for short travel, which makes it ideal for handling mixed terrains and mountain gravel road climbs. Another benefit is its adjustable Charger Race Day damper that provides a rock-solid lockout and a full range of rebound adjust. As a result, riders can use its external rebound and two-position (open/lock) compression to dial in their preferred settings to match their riding style as well as the terrain conditions.
Versatile Gravel Bike Fork: The Rudy delivers more control, more confidence, and more fun to the emerging breed of lycra loving, or baggy wearing, gravel free spirits. This isn’t a “shrink it” development story, Rudy was built from the ground up to match today’s most capable gravel bikes. Going Ultimate means every detail is considered. Rudy Ultimate XPLR features the ultra-lightweight Charger™ Race Day damper paired with a chiselled machined and anodised crown. Versatility and style are key. That’s why Rudy Ultimate XPLR features full fender compatibility, plenty of tyre clearance, and the choice of a “Kwiqsand” Signature colourway or black gloss lower leg finish available to select.
