WOUND UP's Technological edge on the competition is the result of over 40 years of experience providing a full range of composite structures for the defense and aerospace industries.*
That's why X-WOUND technology is the most advanced and automated composite manufacturing process on the planet. With X-WOUND they turn continuous filaments of carbon fiber into the highest quality composite cycling components.
THE FORK Wound Up partnered with Co-Motion cycles to design and build a true tandem-specific carbon fork. The Wound Up™ Tandem Fork is available in both caliper and cantilevered brake versions The Tandem Fork offers a ride quality standard of our road fork with twice the strength and half the weight of traditional steel tandem forks. Sure, they could have gone lighter, but not without compromising rider comfort and safety. At Wound Up™, that's what design partnerships are all about: a "no holds barred" approach to innovation while enhancing the experience for the riders of all sizes and skill levels.
The Research and Development stage focused on key concerns to many tandem riders: + Comfort/handling + Safety + Weight savings over steel forks.
Both companies agreed that vastly improving the dynamics of comfort and handling while inherently recognizing the long safety history of steel forks was the first key. And they did it!
Constant and vigilant computer modeling, testing and riding of prototypes and the final product over a one year span have given us tremendous confidence in the supreme comfort the fork provides and the overall safety under the toughest of conditions and loads.
Using X-Wound technology They have also significantly reduced the weight of tandem forks.
They could have gone lighter…but not without sacrificing rider comfort and safety. And that is what Wound Up and Co-Motion are all about: innovation without cutting corners, innovation with full focus on those who ride. But don’t just take our word for it….
