Abstract
A fork assembly including a stiff steerer tube assembly of metal or the like connected to a generally hollow unitary crown and blade component made of molded resin impregnated fibrous material. The unitary component has at least two adjacent wall sections united by an integrally uniting junction formed by overlapped parts of the sections having sufficiently intimate contact therebetween for stress loadings to be transferred from fiber to fiber across the juncture. The steerer assembly may include a laterally extending and downwardly projecting anchor member which is adhered to an inside surface of the unitary component and may be laminated between overlapping wall sections.
