We are thrilled to introduce the Stelbel carbon fiber fork, made in Italy and designed for road racing models with disc brakes.
Since we brought Stelbel back to the market in 2015, we have been considering the creation of our own carbon fiber fork. However, it is not a simple task for a small, artisanal company to accomplish. It took time for this desire to become a reality, and once the project finally started, it took over two years to complete.
This fork has been entirely designed by us to perfectly complement the aesthetic lines of our frames. It has a minimal appearance, a refined design, and undoubtedly sophisticated technical features.
We construct it in Italy, relying on experienced technicians in the field of composite materials.
This is the stock fork designed for the new SB/04 road racing frame, and it can also be paired with the Antenore and Ti9 models.
It was engineered to seamlessly integrate with the “Evoluzione” internal cable routing system, but can also be custom-built for compatibility with frames featuring traditional cable routing.
This project is identified by the code D52R45, denoting a disc brake-specific fork with a 52mm crown diameter and a 45mm rake.
Despite a compact axle-to-crown length of just 368mm, the fork easily clears tires up to 700x32c. The fork crown features an integrated crown race designed to accommodate a 1-1/4″ lower bearing (47mm diameter).
We use only the finest raw materials in its construction, ensuring a final result that meets the highest expectations and delivers the exact on-road performance we envisioned and engineered.
Through this project, we gained invaluable expertise in composite materials. In all honesty, we lost count of the technical and aesthetic modifications made along the way—all driven by our absolute commitment to crafting the finest possible Italian handmade product.
While this project undoubtedly demanded significant effort, we are immensely proud to now offer a frame and fork combination entirely crafted in Italy by Stelbel. This is a rare distinction, and a solution that many other brands—even those far larger and more established than Stelbel—have yet to offer.
