Invert SL 40mm Gravel Suspension Fork - 700c, 45 mm Offset

The Cane Creek Invert SL is a purpose-built 700c gravel suspension fork designed to reduce fatigue and increase front-end traction on washboard gravel, loose corners, and rough descents. Its inverted chassis and gravel-specific spring curve prioritize small-bump sensitivity without giving up the support needed for out-of-saddle efforts and high-speed stability. With 40mm travel, a 45mm offset, and a claimed 990g weight, it targets riders who want real compliance and control without turning a gravel bike into a heavy trail build.

1. Inverted fork architecture - Improves small-bump response and helps the front wheel track through chatter for more consistent steering and braking on rough gravel
2. Gravel-tuned progressive air spring - Balances traction and mid-stroke support; fully adjustable for rider weight (max 350 lb) with a 250 psi maximum pressure rating
3. Carbon crown and steerer bonded to aluminum upper tubes - Delivers high stiffness-to-weight for precise handling while keeping mass low (claimed 990g)
4. Flat-mount disc / 160mm rotor fit - Direct flat-mount compatibility for a 160mm rotor; brake caliper mounting bolts are included for streamlined installation
5. Install-ready details and included hardware - Ships with thru-axle, Ancora Premium Expansion Plug, 52mm ZN40 headset bearing, and an integrated 36° angle crown race to simplify a clean, reliable build
6. Hand-built in Fletcher, NC - Built to premium standards with careful assembly for riders prioritizing long-term performance and serviceability
