Strummer GVL32
The Strummer GVL32 fork is designed for road bikes and gravel that require additional comfort, control, and stability when traversing rough road surfaces, paving, light gravel, or uneven routes.
With travel options of 40 mm, 50 mm, and 60 mm, the GVL32 helps dampen vibrations without excessively altering the character of road/gravel bikes. Shorter travel keeps handling stable and controlled, unlike MTB forks which generally have longer travel and different handling characteristics.
This fork uses an air suspension system with lockout, allowing the air pressure to be adjusted according to the system weight, riding style, and route conditions.
For inflation, the valve cover on the fork can be opened by hand. No special tools are required to open the cover.

Cable System Variants
The Strummer GVL32 fork is available in two cable system variants. Be sure to choose the variant that matches the frame design and installation needs.
1. Internal Cable
The internal cable variant has holes in the steerer tube, allowing the brake cable to enter through the headset area and pass through the inside of the steerer tube.
The cable then exits through a hole at the bottom of the steerer tube before heading to the brake caliper.
This variant is suitable for frames that already support the internal cable routing system and provides a cleaner and more minimalist bicycle appearance.
Suitable for:
- Frame with internal cable routing
- Clean cockpit setup
- Users who prioritize a neat and modern appearance
2. External Cable
The external cable variant does not have holes in the steerer tube. The brake cable is routed through the outside of the fork.
This fork is equipped with a special guide for external cable routing, keeping the cable position neat, controlled, and not disrupting the bicycle's appearance.
This variant is simpler for installation and suitable for frames that do not support internal cable routing.
Suitable for:
- Frame with external cable routing
- Easier and more flexible installation
- Users who want a neat setup without an internal cable system
