The Axima has 48mm in their spec sheets. Expected to be a typo just to torture us. It's time for a 470+mm (not 465mm) fork with 51mm offset to match the new Fishers. Thousands and thousnads will be sold, and who wants to use the stock Fox or Reba all the time, especially longer road epics and winter riding? Anyway, such a fork would spice up any 29" bike considered to handle a bit slowly. I was referring mostly to the construction. The Axima has 48mm in their spec sheets.

Likely 38mm offset, 465mm. Outdated upon launch. The PRO fork is just an Aima/White Bros/etc catalogue copy. Likely 38mm offset, 465mm.

The show dailies were reporting that it was a trekking wheel in disguise, but I'm hearing it will be a bit different than shown at the Outdoor Demo. Horses: Good find.
