C h r i s K i n g D 1 1 H e a d s e tAfter an exhaustive search for the perfect carbon fiber fork for his frames, Dario Pegoretti decided to design his own. The result is the new Falz fork. Falz is “sickle” in the Italian dialect that Dario speaks and is representative of the shape of the new fork. Dario has always found the aesthetics of the traditional curved fork more to his taste than the straight forks so common today. His design starts with the traditional arc of the fork blades and continues with an updated flat-crown design. Tra-ditionally, flat-crown forks give a little more compliant ride than sloping crowns as the fork legs are slightly longer allowing for better damping characteristics.

This crown also offers increased clearance for the larger tires that are gaining in popularity. 25 or even 28 mm tires should easily work with the Falz. The appearance of the massive flat-crown on the Falz fits well with oversized tubes whether tig-welded or lugged. To match the stiffness of oversized tubing, the fork must have a high degree of lateral stiffness. This is something Dario has found lacking in several of the forks he has examined over the last few years.

The Falz was designed with more lateral stiffness than virtually any other fork while retaining the compliance derived from the flat-crown design. This makes it the perfect match for the ride his steel frames are noted for. One feature which has become increasingly common in the battle for lightness is the loss of a machinable fork crown.

The Falz has an aluminum cap on the crown which allows for precision machining for alignment of the headset crown race. Some other forks use carbon for this which cannot be machined as precisely and thus can reduce the precision and longevity of the headset. Other features in-clude carbon fork tips and 1-1/8” carbon steerer in an extra-long length to allow use on the largest frames.

To complement the Falz fork, Dario has also worked with Chris King to develop a new headset. This new headset is built to a new standard, called D11, which Dario developed to better suit his frames. With the oversized tubing so prevalent today, the diameter of the head tube has actually be-come less than the diameter of the down tube. The resulting juncture is not optimal so this new D11 standard increases the inside diameter of the head tube requiring slightly larger headset cups. The new headset design continues to use the proven bearings and components of King’s standard headsets, but the cups have a larger diameter skirt where they are pressed into the head tube. This skirt is also longer than the standard giving better support to the head tube. The shape of the cups has been modified to flow better with steel and/or titanium frames. You no longer have the “ledge” at the juncture of the head tube and cup.

This headset is also available to frame builders who wish to adopt this new standard. This headset works equally well with the Falz fork and other 1-1/8” forks as the bearing sizes have not been changed. It features Chris King’s Grip-Lock fastening system as well as King’s 10-year warranty and is available in both silver and black.

Gita Sporting Goods, Ltd. in Charlotte, NC has distributed Pegoretti frames as long as Dario has been putting his name on them.
