Description

ORIGINAL PITCHFORK (1991-1996)
Prior to the Pitchfork, the best forks in BMX were made for racing. Given the high-stakes street and dirt riding going on by 1991, risking life and limb on paper-thin dropouts and skinny legs seemed silly.
The Original Pitchfork was made featured double-thick (1/8″ welded together) drop-outs and slightly more rake for peg clearance.

Features

The fork that started it all. S&M built the Original Pitchfork in 1991 because the best forks in BMX were made for racing and street and dirt riding had outgrown them.
Double thick dropouts. Two 1/8" plates welded together, put there because riders were risking life and limb on paper thin race dropouts.
Extra rake for peg clearance. The 1.3" offset was pushed out slightly to give pegs the room they need to work.
Threaded 1" steerer. A 2-piece welded, threaded 1" steerer designed for a shafted stem, the way front ends were built between 1991 and 1996.
1.125" legs, 1.04 kg. Axle to crown is 12.2", so it sits like the forks of the era it comes from.
