Why replace my carbon fork with titanium?

Carbon is lightweight but often feels harsh or vague under load. Grade 9 titanium offers superior vibration damping that reduces fatigue, while our Tri-Process construction provides lateral stiffness that makes steering much more predictable and reassuring at high speeds.

Is the fork truly "indestructible"?

Titanium is inherently much more resistant to impacts and fatigue than carbon. With EN 14781 certification and our 3D printing and forging processes, this fork is designed to last a lifetime, even under heavy use while fully loaded.

What is the impact of the additional weight on handling?

The ~200g difference compared to a carbon fork shifts the mass downwards. This lowering of the center of gravity stabilizes the bike and makes it easier to position the front wheel in tight corners. You gain a planted feel without losing responsiveness.

Is it compatible with dynamo hubs?

Yes, the semi-internal routing version was designed for long-distance riders. It allows for clean cable routing to power your lighting or devices via a dynamo hub.

Can the CYKL titanium fork be mounted on a titanium frame from another brand?

Yes, provided the frame uses the same standards. The points to check are: - Tapered steerer 1"½ – 1"⅛ - Front thru-axle 100x12 mm - Flat mount braking standard - Head tube and front triangle clearance for tires up to 47C (395 mm) or 55C (410 mm) - Original axle-to-crown length of the current fork, to be compared with 395 or 410 mm If these elements match, the GRAAVE fork can be mounted on another brand's titanium frame without compromising safety. It remains recommended to check tire/frame clearance and final cockpit height, especially for heavily loaded or demanding use. If in doubt, contact the CYKL team.

GRAAVE Titanium Gravel & Bikepacking Fork

The definitive upgrade: experience the precision and comfort of an indestructible front end.

Our titanium forks, like all our titanium components, are backed by a lifetime warranty.

Replacing your carbon fork with this titanium model radically transforms your bike's handling. By shifting the mass downwards, you lower the center of gravity: the bike instantly becomes more maneuverable on singletracks and more stable when descending a mountain pass at high speed. Where carbon can feel harsh and resonant, titanium filters out road irregularities, allowing you to ride longer without fatigue while maintaining a pinpoint trajectory.

Thanks to our Tri-Process manufacturing method, we have resolved the main flaw of older titanium forks: lack of stiffness. By combining 3D printing, forging, and hydroforming, we achieve an ultra-stiff and reactive structure, even with a heavy bikepacking load. Naturally impervious to corrosion and mechanical fatigue, titanium gives this component a truly indestructible robustness. Once accustomed to this reactivity and reliability, switching back to a carbon fork will leave the front of your bike feeling vague and fragile.

Key Features

Tri-Process: The combination of three manufacturing processes (3D printing, forging, hydroforming) to eliminate lateral flex and guarantee total steering precision.

Enhanced Maneuverability: A lowered center of gravity for a more playful bike on descents and easier placement in technical singletracks, without losing stability.

Two Geometries: Available in 395 mm (up to 700x47C) for an all-road setup, and 410 mm (up to 700x55C) for maximum clearance and committed bikepacking.

Adventure-Ready: 6 integrated mounting eyelets as standard (compatible with racks and cages) and internal or semi-internal cable routing for a clean and reliable build. Dynamo hub compatible.

Custom Finish: All our titanium forks can be anodized. For any specific finish requests, contact our workshop.

Indestructible & Lifetime Warranty: Because titanium does not corrode and withstands the harshest stresses, this fork is guaranteed for life.

Validated Safety: Design certified to the EN 14781 European safety standard.

Compatibility

Initially developed for the CYKL GRAAVE (in the original 410 mm length), this fork is designed to integrate with the majority of titanium frames on the market equipped with modern standards:

Tapered steerer 1"½ – 1"⅛
100x12 mm front thru-axle
Flat Mount braking standard. Compatible with Post Mount adapters.

To maintain the geometric balance of your current bike, it is recommended to measure the axle-to-crown distance of your original fork before selecting the 395 mm or 410 mm version. If you have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to assist you.
