Adjustable Offset Fork
Concept Rendering
BMX riders prefer different fork offsets for different disciplines of riding. The goal of this project was to invent a technology to allow a rider to have access to different offsets without having to switch bicycles or forks. This simple solution allows the rider to quickly switch offset with one common tool.
