The
Ritchey MY27 Comp Carbon Road Fork is a performance-focused
700c carbon road fork built to sharpen front-end precision while taking the edge off road chatter. Its
High Modulus Fiber (HMF) carbon blades and tuned fiber orientation are designed to manage real-world loads—torsion under hard cornering, side loads in fast transitions, and impacts from rough pavement—so the bike tracks confidently without feeling harsh.
Tough, service-friendly details round it out, including
aluminum dropouts for secure wheel retention and an
aluminum steerer that extends into the crown for added strength at a high-stress junction. With a
1-1/8" steerer and a crown sized for
standard headsets, it’s a straightforward upgrade path for many traditional road framesets.
Front-end design highlights for road riding
- HMF carbon blades - High-strength construction tuned for responsive steering with controlled vibration damping
- Optimized fiber orientation - Helps absorb and dissipate loads for a more confident feel on rougher pavement
- Smooth internal fiber flow at crown/steerer - Promotes efficient force transfer and improved impact strength through the crown area
- Multi-fiber load management - Uses different fiber types where needed to better handle torsion, side loads, and impacts
- Aluminum dropouts and reinforced crown interface - Durable, secure wheel mounting with an aluminum steerer that extends into the crown for added structural support
