The GIRDER Fork has a very remote origin and is also known as the parallelogram fork.

It proved to be the highest performance system immediately and was adopted by most manufacturers.

It began to lose its supremacy in the mid-30’s to the newly developed telescopic fork.

Several Italian manufacturers such as Moto Guzzi, Gilera and Mondial continued to use parallelogram forks (GIRDER) for some models and then the practice was abandoned completely in the middle of the 1950’s for the telescopic fork.

What was the real reason for this change of direction?

Certainly ease of construction, i.e. the ease of obtaining a better performing system simply and with lower production costs.

In fact Girders at the time were generally made using welded pipes or pressed metal sheet with poor precision couplings and not perfectly aligned sliding bushing.

This has been our mission, to build a girder that is machined from solid with sliding rollers and ball bearings and with perfect fit and alignment, with the addition of a special mono shock absorber for different weights, calibration and vehicle types.

To do all this we have 5 axis machining centres that guarantee centesimal precision in couplings and axialities.

Thanks to this precision we have a fork with much higher rigidity than a telescopic one that guarantees perfect functioning of the mono shock absorber and considerable durability, thus obtaining performance that is comparable to a telescopic one but with a unique look.
