Overview

Invert Enduro is Cane Creek's upside-down 29" enduro/e-MTB fork with 160–180 mm travel, 38 mm stanchions and 2795 g (180 mm) actual weight; USD 1,599.99 in the US store.

Invert Enduro is Cane Creek's inverted (upside-down), moto-inspired single-crown fork for long-travel trail, enduro, bike park and electric mountain bikes. Cane Creek says the overbuilt chassis is built to handle the weight, power and speed of modern e-MTBs, and much of its development was done on full-power e-bikes in bike parks.

It uses 38 mm stanchions with 45 mm upper tubes, the second-generation Helm MKII monotube bladder damper with independent high/low-speed compression, and a self-equalizing air spring with onboard volume adjustment. SquareLoc dropouts accept 15 or 20 mm axles, SideSwipe guards are included, and the fork is 29" only.
