BOX Makes Pro Carbon BMX Forks With Titanium Steerer Tube

Box X6 Pro Carbon Forks

BOX Components have taken their fork designs to the next level with their new, oversized Hex Lab X6 carbon forks! They are beefier and stiffer than the popular X5 forks. The X6 also has a wider stance for improved stiffness and clearance for bigger tire sizes which I love. But the big thing that separates these forks from all the rest of the carbon forms is this is the first BMX Fork using Titanium Steerer Tube! However, there’s a weight limit of 253lbs on who can uses the fork.

Press Release:

All Box One forks are engineered and crafted using our Oversized Technology. These forks are the single most important component in the quest for bike control. We’ve moved carbon from areas of low stress to areas that handle high load. Those muscular shoulders aren’t just for looks as they are integral to achieving superior steering stiffness. When combined with Box’s other Oversized components, you’ll experience heightened responsiveness and reduced latency.

Key differences: This model fork showcases our cutting-edge Oversized Technology, featuring a 1.5 to 1-1/8 inch titanium steerer tube for unparalleled strength and precision. Designed with increased tire clearance and larger hips, it delivers enhanced stiffness and performance. The inclusion of robust 20mm thru axle cold-forged dropouts ensures maximum durability and stability. Say goodbye to deflection and hello to superior control and reliability.
