Frequently asked questions
The Podium is ideal for heavier e-bikes, aggressive gravity riders, or racers prioritizing maximum front-wheel traction and reduced arm fatigue over a lightweight setup.
An inverted design keeps the fork seals bathed in lubricating oil at all times, drastically reducing friction. It also allows for much greater bushing overlap than a traditional fork, further enhancing suppleness and sensitivity.
Podium features a custom-tuned Grip X2 damper with a stiffer baseline compression tune designed to counteract the fork's exceptionally low internal friction.
Yes. Podium requires a specific 20x110mm Boost through-axle hub, meaning standard 15x110mm Boost front wheels will require a hub rebuild or a new wheelset. Some hubs feature interchangeable end caps, check with your hub manufacturer to confirm compatibility.
Podium's fore-aft stiffness approaches that of a dual-crown Fox 40, while torsional flexibility is tuned to approximate 36 or 38 in order to help the front wheel track smoothly over roots and rocks instead of deflecting.
