Important Torque Spec Information
Please use a torque wrench when installing this fork onto the bike. If the stem’s side bolts are over-tightened, you run the risk of crushing/damaging the carbon steerer tube which can lead to the product failing. Further, the fork’s integrated locking system has an alloy bolt/head, so if it’s over-tightened then you will strip it. Tighten between 4-5Nm is fine, but do not exceed 5.5Nm.
Compatibility
The Versus Youth Fork is compatible with BMX frames that have both 1" and 1-1/8" head-tubes. Headset spec will be determined by your frame manufacturer, but you can always e-mail us for advice. Rider weight limit for this fork is 115lbs.
