    MAGURA press releaseMarch 2012

    The right fork for every wheelThe new MAGURA TS suspension fork series

    MAGURA has completely revised its suspension fork range. Now featuring new design

    and new internals. The new forks answer to the name of MAGURA TS

    (Team Suspension). Whether it's a 26", 29" or 650B/27.5" for the latest trend this

    season MAGURA offers a matching model for every wheel diameter and a wide range

    of applications.

    Mountain bikes with large diameter wheels are in they promise a smooth ride at high

    speed. But to make the most out of their potential you need to have a matching fork. That is

    why the component specialist MAGURA has expanded its product range for 2012 to cater for

    the new 29" and 650B/27.5" trends in mountain biking. The product range also includes new

    models for 26" wheels with 80 to 150 millimetres of travel for

    cross country, marathon and all mountain.

    No compromise: MAGURA 29" suspension fork with M15 thru-axle

    The new 29" forks are available with a travel of 80 up to 120 millimetres. Their design is

    engineered without compromise for high stiffness. The ultra-stable DAD arch (Double Arch

    Design) and the new MAGURA M15 thru-axles make a major contribution here. The steer

    tube options offered by MAGURA are the standard 1 1/8" and a tapered version. The tapered

    steer tubes can fit very short head tubes on small 29" frames.

    MAGURA suspension forks for 650B/27.5"

    MAGURA also has suspension forks to match the new trend in 650B/27.5" wheels with a

    travel of 120 to 150 millimetres. They are compatible with almost all 650B/27.5" tyres

    currently available on the market. The fork-design is weight-optimised.

    DAD (Double Arch Design) and QR15 thru-axles ensure high stiffness.

    The MAGURA suspension fork series

    All TS forks have been developed based on the SLE concept (Stiffer, Lighter, Easier). This

    means optimum stiffness at the lowest possible weight, extremely low maintenance, and a

    easy set up. With the Fork Master Concept (FMC) it is possible to manufacture forks with a

    sensitive response where special bushings, seals and surfaces work together with the Fork

    Master Grease (FMG) to deliver an exceptional ride. The forks feature progressive

    suspension characteristics that prevent over-response even in steep terrain. The TS8 R 150

    is offered as a fixed travel version or with the LS (Lift Select) system.

    M15 thru-axles with integrated tool

    The new MAGURA M15 thru-axles have been especially developed for MAGURA 29"

    suspension forks. A special feature is the self-retaining thread that makes additional locking

    of the thru-axle unnecessary. Simply tighten the axle and the wheel is safely secured. The

    MAGURA Tool for Torx T25 bolts is concealed inside the thru-axle, so you have always got

    the tool for tightening the axle with you. At the same time it protects the thread against

    contamination. The tool can also be used on the most bolts of MAGURA MT hydraulic

    disc brakes and HS rim brakes. You can use them for changing brake pads or adjusting thelever settings, for example. This system of axle and integrated tool weighs only

    58 grams.

    Perfect fit between discs and 29" or 650B/27.5" wheels

    29" and 650B/27.5" suspension forks are supplied exclusively with the PM7 disc brake mount

    for discs with a diameter of 180 millimetres and upwards. Large wheels also need large discs

    to ensure performance and durability.

    Protection Caps

    An intuitive feature are the Protection Caps at the lower end of the forks. They prevent

    damage to the drop outs and rebound dial while the wheel is removed. These are fitted to all

    MAGURA forks with thru-axles.
