Supercross BMX have taken their popular cromo SLT forks and updated them for a 1 1/8″ – 1.5″ tapered steerer tube. The forks are available in black or chrome and with 10 or 20mm dropouts. Tapered steerers are most common in alloy and carbon frames, and while carbon forks are more common there are those who prefer the feel, or maybe the price tag of cromo forks. Should we expect a tapered head tube in future cromo frames out of Supercross? Time will tell.

Manufacturer’s Description

New for 2022 – The Tapered Supercross SLT! The Tapered SLT fork uses the same great Seamless Tapered and Butted Heat Treated 4130 Cro-mo butted legs as our traditional SLT race Forks, but now has a new Exclusive Cold Forged Spiral Bulge Butted Steer tube that goes from 1 1/8″ to 1.5 to fit to all of the Tapered Headtube Race Frames.

Full Laser Cut Heat Treated Cro-mo Dropouts have the same offset for both the 3/8″ and the 20mm styles, for the same precise handling.

Full Post Weld Heat Treat for Maximum Strength.

Welded in Star Nut makes installation easy, and our 7075 Billet Aluminium Top Cap, is included with the forks.

Available in 20″ and 24″ sizes, and in both 3/8″ and 20mm dropouts.

The Tapered SLT 20mm forks in a 20″ BMX Race size weigh in at a scant 29.5 ounces in chrome. ( weights will vary depending upon the amount of powder coat or filler rod used on a particular fork)

Available in 20″ and 24″ sizes.
