The newest addition to the Sinz Elite carbon fiber fork line, the Stealth Pro CFC Carbon, quietly made its debut at the ABA Winter Nationals this past weekend on the front of several Elite Pro bikes. Look for the Pro Plus to be in wider use starting next week in South Africa at Round 1 of the UCI Super Cross World Cup Series.

At around 615 grams, the Pro CFC (Carbon Fiber Crown) is lightweight but with the strength and rigidity of the Sinz Elite Pro forks used by many of the world's fastest BMX racers. We did this by developing a new 4130-chromoly steerer tube and all-carbon fiber crown for the Pro CFC.

 

The new Stealth Pro CFC forks weigh more than a half pound less than the Pro forks they replace.

The Pro CFC is available in 20- and 24-icnh sizes for 10- or 20-millimeter axles.

A 20-inch Pro Plus fork weighs approximately 265 grams less than the Pro-that's more than half a pound lighter. They retain the 195-pound recommended weight limit of the heavier model fork they replace.

Want proof that the new fork can handle the needs of BMX racers? Ecuador's Emilio Falla took a brutal header on the first jump at the Winter Nationals. His Pro CFC fork survived the spill unscathed. Emilio, on the other hand, was battered and bruised, but walked away in good shape, thanks, in part, to his THE T2 helmet and THE Storm pads.

Emilio Falla's bike bounced some 20 feet high and his new Sinz Elite Pro CFC fork survived unscathed.

Pro CFC forks are available in 20-inch and 24-inch sizes with 1 1/8" steerer tubes and 10- or 20-millimeter dropouts. The MSRP for the 10-millimeter models is $249.99, the same price as the Pro and Pro Lites. The 20-millimeter models retail for $279.99. Check them out at your local Sinz and Sinz Elite dealer.

Sinz Elite has discontinued production of the standard Pro forks and has closed out its inventory. The extra heavy-duty Pro Alloy forks, however, remain in the Sinz Elite fork line-up.
