The Carver Bikes Trail 490 Boost Carbon Fork is a lightweight, full-carbon rigid fork built for riders who want a precise front end, low system weight, and modern tire clearance on 29er trail bikes—without giving up the geometry of a suspension-corrected setup.
Built to upgrade a 29er trail chassis
Full-Carbon Construction - Delivers a very low claimed weight of 720g (without axle) for quicker handling and easier climbing-focused builds
Suspension-Corrected Axle-to-Crown - Designed to match the front-end height of a 100–120mm travel suspension fork for a familiar ride position and steering feel
29x2.35" Tire Clearance - Fits up to 29x2.35" tires for confident traction and control on mixed trail surfaces
Boost Compatibility - Intended for modern Boost front hub setups to keep wheel fit consistent with current trail bike standards
Rigid Fork Simplicity - Eliminates suspension service needs while providing consistent steering and dependable performance for commuting, training, and bikepacking-style builds
