Privateer 700c Mountain Bike Fork – 1-1/8 Steerer Tube – High-Performance Blue

Our Colonial Blue CrMo Fork is engineered for riders seeking rugged durability and versatile utility on their 700c wheeled bikes. Designed with a straight steerer tube (28.6/30.0mm) and a 390mm axle-crown length, this fork seamlessly integrates with a wide range of handlebar setups while maintaining precise steering response. Its cantilever brake mounts ensure compatibility with traditional braking systems favored by touring cyclists and cyclocross enthusiasts alike.

Crafted from high-quality chromoly steel, this fork combines lightweight performance with unmatched strength—ideal for daily commuters hauling groceries or weekend adventurers packing gear into panniers via its mid-blade low rider braze-ons and reinforced double dropout eyelets (9x100mm QR). The 50mm rake provides stable tracking on rough urban streets while sharpening cornering agility on gravel paths, making it perfect for mixed-terrain riding. The lugged sloping crown not only enhances structural integrity but also adds a touch of classic craftsmanship to your build.

Whether you’re navigating potholed city roads or exploring off-road trails with loaded gear, this fork delivers smooth compliance and long-lasting reliability. Its colonial blue finish stands out in crowds while resisting corrosion from environmental elements—perfect for year-round use without compromising aesthetics.
