Gravel Fork for Semi-integrated cockpit
« on: April 24, 2025, 03:37:01 PM »
Hey there

I have a planet x tempest gravel bike. (it's here https://www.instagram.com/p/B-kQQMZFsB8/)
 

I do quite like it, although after recently having built up a velobuild VBR268 with everything integrated, i developed an itch for the clean looks. Now the frame doesn't lend itself easily to hide all the cables and hoses, but I have it mostly figured out now. Basically its another EC44 Cup up top and a FSA ACR style headset/expander setup. Problem is my fork doesn't have internal  routing for the front brake caliper. I've been looking quite a bit on ali, but the only integrated gravel fork i found was very wide with tire compatibility up to 55mm. Now I'd love something a bit slimmer/sportier that preferably would have a non-tapered steerer. Would anyone know of a good source?

Thanks a lot,
Alessandro

What tire width are you wanting? and what size steerer? the common size is 1.5 to 1.125 inch tapered steerer (idk why you wouldn't have a tapered steerer?)

winnow has this one that has 45mm tire clearance but it is 1.5 to 1.125 tapered
