Electric Scooter Fork

What is an electric scooter fork?

If you are an electric scooter enthusiast, you know that each spare part of your electric scooter is as important as the next. Forks are no exception to this rule.

A electric scooter fork is an important part of the scooter that connects the front wheel to the steering stem.

The standard size for the forks is 100 mm, but some brands may use different sizes.

• What are the different types of electric scooter forks?

There are mainly two types of forks for electric scooters: the telescopic fork And the rigid fork. Each has its advantages and disadvantages.

The telescopic fork

The telescopic fork consists of two tubes, one sliding into the other. It is often equipped with suspensions to absorb shock while driving.

Benefits

• Driving comfort : The telescopic fork suspension provides better shock and vibration damping, allowing users to ride on bumpy roads without feeling too much shaking.
• Security : The telescopic fork suspension provides better control of the electric scooter when cornering and on rough roads.
• Versatility : the telescopic fork is suitable for different types of terrain, from paved roads to dirt roads.

Disadvantages

• Weight : The telescopic fork is generally heavier than a rigid fork, which may affect the handling of the electric scooter.
• Interview : Telescopic fork suspension requires regular maintenance to avoid oil leaks, seal failures and pressure problems.

The rigid fork

The rigid fork, as its name suggests, is a fork without suspension. It is often used on competition electric scooters, where lightness is an important factor.

Benefits

• Lightness : The rigid fork is lighter than the telescopic fork, which can improve the handling of the electric scooter.
• Simplicity : the rigid fork is easier to maintain than the telescopic fork, because it does not contain suspension.

Disadvantages

• Driving comfort : Without suspension, the rigid fork can make driving more difficult on bumpy roads, because it cannot absorb shock and vibration.
• Security : The rigid fork can make driving more difficult on rough roads and when cornering, since it cannot offer as much control as the telescopic fork.

The telescopic fork offers better driving comfort and an better security, but it is heavier and requires more maintenance.

The rigid fork is lighter and easier to maintain, but it offers a less comfortable and less secure ride.

The choice between the two will therefore depend on the user's personal preferences and the intended use of the electric scooter.
