Avalanche Fork Susp 24" Coil 50mm Disc 1-1/8" QR
What Is It?
The Avalanche 24” Coil Suspension Fork is an entry-level mountain bike front suspension fork designed for 24-inch wheel bikes, typically junior MTB, budget trail bikes, or commuter-style builds. It uses a coil spring system with about 50mm of travel to absorb small bumps, improving comfort and control on rough roads and light off-road terrain.
It features a straight 1-1/8” steerer tube, quick release (QR) 9mm dropout, and is compatible with disc brakes, making it a common replacement fork for basic MTB setups.
