Columbus has been designing and producing fork blades and steering columns for forks since the start of 1900. During these 100 years Columbus has increased its knowledge to correctly define every functional aspect of a fork, thoroughly calculating the optimum side and frontal strength parameters, without omitting the aesthetic aspect and lightness of the piece. Since more than 90 years the forks made with Columbus steel fork blades are all of this. Today the use of carbon fibrew gives more lightness to this component and allows Columbus to capitalize its experience. Carbon fibre is 4 times more resistant than steel and 8 times more resistant than alloy, and thanks to its versatility and sense of direction of the fibres.
