ABSTRACT:
A modular telescopic front fork assembly which is adaptable to a wide range of applications is disclosed. The modular telescopic front fork assembly is utilized for a front of a vehicle having at least one front wheel. The modular telescopic front fork assembly includes a removable self-contained damper cartridge. This removable self-contained damper cartridge includes a housing and a reciprocating piston rod axially extending from the housing. A first securing mechanism steerably secures the housing of the self-contained damper cartridge to the front of the vehicle. A second securing mechanism secures the piston rod of the self-contained damper cartridge adjacent to the front wheel of the vehicle. This provides a removable self-contained damper cartridge which damps the movement of the front wheel relative to the vehicle.
