The MRP Baxter gravel suspension fork distinguishes itself from competitors with both 40mm and 60mm travel options, catering to varied riding styles including aggressive 'monster gravel' builds. The 40mm option provides a slight increase in axle-to-crown height, enhancing the front end's feel and promoting a more upright riding position. A notable feature is the flip-chip dropout system which allows for effective adjustment of the fork offset, ensuring riders maintain their desired handling. However, the dropouts lack grooves, making wheel installation a bit challenging under pressure, especially in racing scenarios.
When it comes to gravel suspension forks, you'd think there's not a lot of opportunity to make 40mm of travel that different from the next brand.
For starters, it comes in 40mm and 60mm travel options, the latter being more travel than most competitors.
Thanks to their flip-chip dropout system, you can adjust the effective fork offset (and, thus, trail) to maintain the handling you're accustomed to.
The only downside to these dropouts is that they have no hooked grooves at the top, so the wheel can slide right past them during installs.
