Decathlon bicycle forks are designed for a wide range of cycling practices, from urban and leisure outings to technical mountain biking. Decathlon offers forks for its own bicycle brands (Rockrider for mountain biking, Riverside for trekking, Triban for road cycling, etc.), with models adapted to the needs of each discipline. Known for their good value for money, Decathlon forks combine durability, versatility and comfort, suitable for cyclists of all levels.

General characteristics of Decathlon bicycle forks

1. Suspension type:

  • Rigid forks: Models for road bikes and some trekking bikes (like Riverside) often feature rigid forks, ideal for smooth surfaces and urban commuting. This helps reduce overall weight and increase pedaling efficiency.
  • Suspension forks: For mountain biking, the Rockrider brand offers suspension forks with spring or pneumatic options depending on the model. Air suspension forks are common on mid- to high-end models because they provide better shock absorption and are adjustable to suit the rider's weight.

2. Travel:

  • Road and Trekking Bikes: Rigid road or trekking bike forks typically have little or no travel, since they are designed for smooth surfaces and road travel.
  • MTB (Rockrider): Rockrider MTB forks offer travel ranging from 80 mm for leisure models to around 130 mm for more technical models (such as trail or enduro MTB), providing good comfort on uneven terrain and technical trails.

3. Manufacturing materials:

  • Aluminum: Commonly used for its lightness and strength, aluminum is present in most rigid and suspension forks for the leisure and mid-range ranges.
  • Steel: Some leisure or trekking bikes, especially in the entry-level ranges, use steel forks. Although a little heavier, steel is durable and provides good vibration absorption.
  • Carbon: Carbon forks are rarer at Decathlon, but they are sometimes used on road bikes in the Triban or Van Rysel range, as carbon is lightweight and improves responsiveness and comfort for road cyclists.

4. Settings:

  • Preload: Some Rockrider forks, especially in MTB models, allow the spring preload to be adjusted to suit the rider's weight and preferences.
  • Compression and Rebound: Air forks on premium mountain bike models offer compression and rebound adjustment options, allowing for more precise, personalized suspension tuning for greater control on technical trails.
  • Locking system: Most suspension forks for mountain biking and trekking incorporate a locking system, allowing the suspension to be locked to optimize pedaling on flat surfaces and uphill. This lock can be controlled manually on the fork or from the handlebars on certain models.

5. Brake Compatibility and Steering Type:

  • Disc brakes: Decathlon mountain bike forks and trekking bike forks are often compatible with disc brakes, offering better stopping power, especially on wet or technical terrain.
  • Rim brakes: Road bike forks and some entry-level trekking models still use rim brakes, for simple and light braking.
  • Headtube: Most Decathlon forks are designed for 1"1/8 headtubes, although some newer MTB and gravel forks adopt a tapered tube (1"1/8 top, 1"1/2 at the bottom) for greater rigidity and precision.

Specificities of forks by type of bike at Decathlon

1. Rockrider (MTB):

  • Travel: Generally between 80 and 130 mm, depending on the practice (leisure, cross-country, trail).
  • Suspension: Entry-level models use spring-loaded forks, while mid- and high-end models (e.g. Rockrider XC) feature adjustable air forks.
  • Lockout: Almost all Rockrider forks include a lockout to maximize climbing efficiency.

2. Riverside (Trekking):

  • Rigid or short-travel forks: For trekking bikes, Decathlon offers rigid forks or light suspensions, with travel of 60 to 80 mm to improve comfort on mixed terrain.
  • Materials: Aluminum for lightweight models, but steel is also used for greater robustness and comfort in absorbing vibrations.
  • Fender and Rack Compatibility: Riverside forks include fender and rack mounts, ideal for travel and commuting.

3. Triban and Van Rysel (Road bike):

  • Rigid carbon or aluminum forks: For better lightness and responsiveness, road bikes like the Triban RC500 or Van Rysel use rigid forks. Carbon is favored on more efficient models.
  • Streamlined design: Decathlon road bike forks are streamlined to optimize aerodynamics and minimize wind resistance.

4. Gravel (Triban GRVL):

  • Rigid carbon or aluminum forks: Triban gravel bikes adopt rigid forks for comfort and responsiveness on mixed terrain.
  • Compatibility: These forks are compatible with wide tires (up to 45 mm) to provide good grip and increased comfort on unpaved paths.

In summary

Decathlon bicycle forks are distinguished by their versatility, their adaptability to practices and their good quality/price ratio. Whether for city trips, mountain biking, trekking or road cycling, Decathlon offers a wide range of robust forks adapted to the needs of each discipline. These forks incorporate durable materials, practical adjustment options and optimal comfort, making Decathlon bikes accessible and efficient for a wide audience of cyclists.
