K-Tech KTR-5 fork with Through Rod Damping System – Racing Front Fork

K-Tech KTR-5 fork with Through Rod Damping System – latest generation racing technology

The K-Tech KTR-5 is the logical evolution of the successful KTR-4 fork and sets new standards in precision, stability, and ride feel. Equipped with the innovative Through Rod Damping System (TRDS) , it offers top-level damping performance – developed for professional racing and demanding riders who make no compromises.

The TRDS system uses a 25mm cartridge and features completely independent damping channels for compression and rebound. The reduced hysteresis allows the fork to react even faster and more precisely, improving suspension control and giving the rider a direct, confident feel for the front wheel.

Another advantage of the TRDS system: temperature changes do not affect the damping . Since there is no piston rod with oil displacement, there are no pressure changes due to temperature increases. As a result, the damping performance remains constant even over longer race distances – without fading .
