TRAIL / ENDURO (27.5+/29")
It’s pretty clear the competition forgot about stiffness when designing its plus-size wheel forks.
Most plus forks are just wider versions of a standard fork, without thought to adding material to make up for the stiffness loss brought the extra width.
With the new McQueen fork, we didn’t want to compromise stiffness just because of a bigger tire, so our goal was to make it equal in stiffness to the rest of our 34mm forks. And we did it without adding a ton of heft. The McQueen tips the scaled just over 2200 grams, providing a stiffness to weight ratio bar none.
