Wilbers Forks & Front Fork Upgrades
Why a fork upgrade?
| Property | Standard Fork | Wilbers Fork Components |
|---|---|---|
| Response | Often wooden or insensitive to small bumps | Finest response due to minimised friction and optimised guidance |
| Braking Stability | Strong "diving" under hard braking | High hydraulic reserves prevent bottoming out and stabilise the front |
| Feedback & Grip | Vague feeling for the front wheel when leaned over | Crystal-clear feedback and constantly high tyre contact |
| Adjustability | Often none or very rudimentary options from the factory | Precise adjustment of rebound, compression and preload depending on model |

Cartridge Systems
The professional internal upgrade
With our cartridge systems, the original look of the standard fork is completely retained, while the entire mechanics and hydraulics are upgraded to true racing standards.
Our Systems Overview:
Open Cartridge: The flexible, proven solution for a wider range of use and noticeably more stable handling for daily use and touring.
Closed Cartridge: Absolute racing-ready technology. Due to the complete separation of oil and gas in a closed chamber, the damping remains absolutely constant even under extreme continuous loads.
Ideal for:
Sporty street riders looking for maximum adjustability
Riders who want to keep the original look of the fork
Fork Springs
The foundation for ride comfort and stability
Replacing the fork springs is the first and most efficient step towards better handling. Wilbers fork springs are tuned exactly to your needs and permanently eliminate the weaknesses of soft standard forks.
Your Benefits:
- Progressive or linear winding – perfectly matched to the application
- No deep diving of the front under hard braking
- Individually designed for your rider weight
- Includes detailed installation instructions with air chamber specifications
Ideal for:
- Daily riders and tourers
- Price-conscious optimisers with high quality standards
Fork Oil
The right medium for constant damping
Only the perfect fork oil brings the mechanical and hydraulic components to life. Our high-end oils prevent foaming, reduce friction and offer exact damping forces regardless of temperature.
Our Premium Formulas:
- Fork Oil ZERO friction: Reduces wear, extremely low friction and ideal for sporty street use.
- Fork Oil GP5 new racing formula: Developed for hard racing – maximum shear stability and absolutely reliable damping even with extreme heat development.
Ideal for:
- Annual suspension service
- Perfect coordination in combination with Wilbers fork springs
