Wilbers forksprings for Beta Alp 4.0 04-11

Product details

Wilbers forkspring set, progressive, for Beta Alp 4.0, type T 1, model year 04-11 (forkoil please order separately), with ABE according to the usage list.

General description

Depending on the application, Wilbers offers progressive or linear forksprings, manufactured from the best and highest quality chrome-silicon steel. For touring and touring-sport applications, we generally recommend a progressive forkspring to optimise response behaviour on the one hand, and to increase bottoming resistance on the other. Crucially important is the combination of "Zero Friction" forksprings with the specially developed Wilbers forkoil, as well as observing the correct air chamber for the respective corresponding vehicle. If desired, an individual setup can be achieved in special cases by changing the air chamber.
For motorsport applications, we recommend the very light linear chrome-silicon forksprings from Wilbers, which were co-developed by the motorsport team.

"ZERO friction" friction reduction through vibratory finishing:
During vibratory finishing, the component to be processed, such as Wilbers forksprings, are placed together with an abrasive media specially tailored for this application in a vibrating container, known as a vibratory trough.
The vibrations of the container create a relative movement between the workpiece and the abrasive media, leading to a smoothing of the componentuppersurface due to constant rubbing. At the end of the processing, a fine, shiny surface is achieved.
For Wilbers forksprings, this reduction in surface roughness means a minimisation of friction = ZERO friction.

Each set of forksprings includes a recommendation for the viscosity of the forkoil and the height of the air chamber in the fork. These values have been determined by experienced Wilbers technicians and ensure optimum riding comfort and feedback at the front wheel.

Note: please order the forkoil separately.
