Our non-suspension-corrected fork, complete with mounting points, so you can carry more on your next off-road adventure.
Bikepacking Companion
Our SEEK 430 fork, originally titled GMX+, was initially available to work in unison with the GMX+ frameset and our popular Walmer bar. Today it is now available as a non-suspension corrected alternative. Please note, the SEEK 430 is not designed to replace a suspension fork.
Ready For Adventure
Featuring 6 x 12 mm M5 mounting points on each blade, the SEEK 430 can accommodate anything from extra water bottles, our Rocket Pooches, or any other micro pannier or fork-specific bag. However, please keep in mind that it is designed to carry a max weight of 6 kg (3 kg/ blade across three mounting points). Furthermore, the Seek 430 Fork features the lowest possible axle to crown height, 430 mm, allowing frame builders to develop bikes accommodating wider tyres, with a clearance of up to 3.0 inches. With wider tyres, you can explore more rugged terrain with ease.

FAQs
|
Will the Seek 430 work with my frame? |
The Seek 430 fork has a tapered 1 1/8"-1.5" (28.6-39mm) steerer with a 350 mm length. We use this steerer type on all of our forks. It may work with your frame, but you may have to change your headset or headset bearings to make it work. Please have a professional bicycle mechanic fit your Seek 430 fork. |
|
Will the Seek 430 work with HOPE calipers? |
Yes, but only paired with a +20mm adapter and a 200mm rotor. HOPE's "HBML" adapter has been confirmed to work. |
|
Will the Seek 430 work with Paul Klamper calipers? |
We have yet to test the fit with Paul Klamper brakes physically, but 3D modelling suggests it will work together with a +20mm Post Mount adapter and a 200mm rotor. |
| What is the maximum recommended spacer stack I can put under my stem? | We don’t recommend any more than 30mm below your stem (40mm can be approved in certain cases), and suggest putting a 3-5mm spacer above the stem to ensure precise compression and ample clearance of your stem cap. |
| How much can I carry on the fork legs? | The M5 rivnuts can carry 3kg across all three mounts. Please use a mounting cage that utilises all three mounts. If attaching something to only two of the mounts, the weight limit is reduced to less than 1kg. We do not recommend attaching water bottles to the fork. |
|
What torque should I use for the leg mounts? |
Generally, you don't need to add a lot of torque to the M5 bolts to secure a mounting cage. The maximum recommended torque to attach a cage is 5Nm. DO NOT use locking washers, bolts with serrated heads or any kind of threadlocker (incl. bolts with threadlocker already applied). This can cause the rivnuts to come loose. NOTE: If you're just putting bolts in the mounts to plug the holes - DO NOT torque the bolts. Only do them up finger tight. |
