DT Swiss now sells its F 132 One and F 132 gravel suspension forks separately, rather than only as original equipment on complete bikes. Both have 40mm of travel; the F 132 One is listed at £999.99, while the price of the simpler F 132 was not available in the report.
DT Swiss has made its F 132 gravel suspension forks available to buy separately, allowing riders to fit them to existing bikes instead of acquiring one only as part of a complete bike. The range includes two 40mm-travel models; the higher-spec F 132 One is priced at £999.99, while the source report says the price of the standard F 132 was not yet known.
The F 132 One and F 132 were previously spotted on selected Canyon Grail race bikes, according to off.road.cc, which reported that the forks had not been available as standalone purchases until now. The newly reported availability makes them an aftermarket upgrade option, though compatibility will depend on a rider’s frame and fork setup.
The F 132 One has a handlebar-mounted lockout, with its cable routed through the steerer tube. It also includes DT Swiss’s adjustable Lineair SL air spring and a Plaingain damper with nine rebound-adjustment clicks, controlled by a dial on the lower left leg. The simpler F 132 shares the Lineair SL air spring but omits both the lockout and rebound adjustment.
Both forks have 40mm of travel and come in 45mm, 50mm or 56mm offsets. DT Swiss provides an online calculator to help riders select an offset, a relevant detail because the forks’ axle-to-crown measurement is taller than that of a typical rigid gravel fork. Universal mounting adapters are available for £44.99 and, according to the company, support up to three kilograms per side.
A Standalone Upgrade for Gravel Bikes
Selling the forks separately changes the purchase from a feature limited to selected complete-bike builds into an option for some existing gravel-bike owners. That does not mean every frame can accept one: the longer axle-to-crown measurement can alter a bike’s geometry, and riders need to check compatibility and choose an appropriate offset before buying.
The product also involves trade-offs beyond its price. The source report puts the fork’s weight at up to 1,380 grams, and suspension adds a component that requires maintenance. In return, DT Swiss says the fork is designed to smooth rough terrain; its claim that a smoother ride can conserve riders’ leg energy is the company’s stated rationale, not an independently established outcome in the material provided.
For riders who carry gear, the adapters retain mounting points on the fork legs, with DT Swiss specifying a three-kilogram limit per side. That offers a way to keep some carrying capacity, but the reported limit should not be read as confirming compatibility with every rack, cage or bike configuration.

From Grail Builds to Aftermarket Sales
DT Swiss’s gravel suspension entry first drew attention after the F 132 appeared on certain Canyon Grail race bikes last year, according to off.road.cc. Until the reported change, riders could get the fork only by buying a complete bike equipped with it. Standalone sales broaden access, though the source does not specify which markets or retailers have stock.
Gravel suspension remains a product choice rather than a universal requirement. The F 132 range is aimed at riders considering added compliance and control on rougher routes, while a rigid fork avoids suspension weight and servicing. The two DT Swiss versions offer different equipment levels: the One provides lockout and rebound adjustment, while the standard F 132 is the more basic option.
DT Swiss recommends a “small” service after 150 riding hours or one year, whichever comes first, and estimates that interval at about 3,750 kilometres of gravel riding. The company advises shorter intervals in harsher conditions, according to the source report.

Price and Fitment Still Need Checking
The source report gives a UK price of £999.99 for the F 132 One but says DT Swiss had not supplied the standard F 132’s price in advance. It also does not establish availability by country, retailer stock levels or delivery timing, so the reported launch should not be taken as confirmation that both forks are immediately in stock everywhere.
Individual-bike compatibility remains a key unknown for buyers. The report identifies three offset choices and a taller axle-to-crown measurement, but does not list compatible frames or provide a full fitment assessment for every model. Riders should consult DT Swiss’s calculator and verify clearances and geometry with the bike or fork manufacturer before purchase. The material also does not provide independent testing of the claimed ride or energy benefits.

Check Local Stock and Fork Compatibility
Prospective buyers can check DT Swiss’s product information and offset calculator, then confirm that their frame, steerer, wheel and brake setup are compatible before ordering. The source report says the F 132 One is priced at £999.99 and its mounting adapters at £44.99; it indicates the F 132 price was still pending. Further details on pricing, regional availability and retailer stock may clarify the options for riders considering the simpler fork.
Owners should also account for the stated 150-hour or one-year service interval, with shorter intervals advised for harsher riding. The source material does not identify a later update date or a further technical announcement.
