Fork guards sit in the line of fire from roost, stones and branches. If you want carbon on the front end, they are one of the simplest parts to start with. This guide explains what is in the CS Composite set, the sizes, and which bikes it fits.

What is in the set
The Fork Guards are sold as a matched set: a short guard (174 mm) and a tall guard (290 mm), one pair per bike. They are 100% 3K dry carbon fibre with a gloss finish, so the tight twill weave is visible on every guard.
Which forks do they fit?
The guards fit standard 48 mm WP and Öhlins forks. That makes them a universal fit for KTM, GasGas and Husqvarna, and for many other brands that use 48 mm forks. If you are not sure what size your fork tubes are, measure them or check your bike manual before you order.
Why carbon?
Dry carbon is made from pre-impregnated carbon fibre cured under heat and pressure. The result is a light, stiff part with a finish that looks the same on every guard. Read more in our guide to carbon fibre versus plastic.
What riders say
“The front fork guards provide great coverage, both in height and around the back, leaving no part of the fork exposed.” This is a review from Jacopo, a rider in the CS Composite ambassador program who rides a KTM EXC 350.
