plural of stanchion
Stanchions are the upper portion of suspension fork legs, which are rigidly connected to the fork crown and stay still as the lower portion (sliders) move up and down absorbing bumps in the terrain Stanchions are made from chromed steel (heavy but strong and friction free) or aluminium (coated with Teflon or some other material to prevent friction) Stanchions are either cold press fitted into the crowns, bonded or held in place by bolts Of these options, bolts are the best as they allow replacement of a stanchion if damaged, then cold press fitting as it is light and strong Bonding has not been very sucessful and most manufacturers have abandoned this method
