Leaf-sprung fork, now for smaller wheels…

One of the more interesting designs of the last couple of years, Lauf’s Trail Racer is a leaf-sprung, 60mm suspension fork. Reviewed here, we found it to be light and reliable- a good half-step for those considering a rigid fork.

For 2015, the company has released a 27.5 version. At under 980g, the TR275 is still remarkably light and now comes with Lauf’s own 15mm thru axle. Shorter riders rejoice!
