Preamble Fork

$130 USD

The Preamble Fork is a utility-focused Chromoly steel fork with no time for bullshit. Offered in 650b and 700c configurations, it has 51mm I.S. disc caliper mounts, as well as fork crown and mid-blade rack mounts. We gave it tire clearance up to 41mm, and we made sure it could run fenders because we know you’re going to find yourself in sub-optimal conditions from time to time. Torrential rain. Unpaved shortcuts. Conversations with optimists. Built for simple jobs that must be done well, the Preamble Fork promises Surly’s renowned ride feel and asks for nothing in return.

Specifications:

Axle-to-crown: 380mm (650b); 400mm (700c)
Hub Spacing: 100mm
Offset: 47mm (650b); 44mm (700c)
Steerer: 1-1/8”, 250mm length (650b) or 330mm length (700c)
Tire Clearance: Clearance for 650b x 41mm tires or 700c x 41mm tires (with or without fenders)
Weight: 2.5 lbs
