Innovative designer of bike bags and frame luggage, Tailfin transforms suspension forks with their new SFM mount system, allowing you to carry even more on your off-road adventures.

While it may not seem like anything new, Taifin's new Suspension Fork Mount pays close attention to the details. It's a universal clamp system that enables suspension fork users to mount cargo cages or water bottle cages to the fork's lower legs.

There are two models to choose from, carbon fibre and stainless steel, fitting most suspension forks with lower leg diameters between 38-45mm (30mm-36mm stanchions). Each SFM set comes with two mounts and multiple mounting hardware to mount up to two cargo/bottle cages per side.

Tailfin proudly claims that its new suspension fork mount exceeds the quality and function of most existing designs. The brand's new design prevents slippage, damage to forks and can carry a much heavier load than most other models on the market.

Tailfin provides 5 years, no quibble warranty, along with a crash replacement warranty. The SFM mounts have a weight limit of 3kg for singletrack riding and 5kg for gravel. The carbon mount set retails for £50 while the stainless steel version retails for £30.

How's that rear rack supposted to work on that full sus bike pictured above? are you just running it with the shock locked out? if so that's a good way to destroy an expensive part.
