The EC90 is the bike industries first one piece all carbon aerodynamic road fork. The products unique use of a cavitation reducing cross-section and an aft-ward inset brake position increased wheel airflow dynamics for traditional competition bicycles. Using Easton's proprietary Continuous-Carbon Technology(CCT) process allowed the EC90's fork, struts, and steerer tube to be molded as a single part. The EC90 is able of withstanding 400K cycles at 130 lbs/170 lbs typical of Mt. Bike forks.

Easton EC90 Carbon Aero Road Fork
The EC90 is the bike industries first one-piece all carbon aerodynamic road fork. The unique fork blade cross-section and new inset brake position improved airflow by reducing cavitation around the front wheel of the bike. Utilizing Easton’s proprietary Continuous-Carbon Technology (CCT) process the EC90's fork, struts, and steerer tube combines into a single molded part. The EC90 is able of withstanding 400K cycles at 130 lbs/170 lbs typical of Mt. Bike forks.
