If you don't hear from him in a week or two, give him a call.

not Chris but Georg from http://www.gebla.de will do it for me ;) his forks are nearly 98% identical with YO fork.

here is one

ForkMTB07-01.jpg



It will be finished in the next 2 to 3 weeks :D

My big problem now is the color! I think I could never get exactly the same grellow, therefore, I consider painting it in another color! but which would be match? black? pink? yellow?

and also looking for this stickers (not my pic)

Gil_m on RB will help you out with the decal's for the fork.You really need the forks to match the frame else you may as well keep the bouncers (which do look great)

The fork of Georg is a really good choice. Why go far when the good is so close :D But make sure that you stick on the decals in the right way, not like in the picture.

well I have written to Chris Igeleheart 5 times and have tried to reach him, but without success! Georg has contacted me pretty quickly. I only hope that his work is as good as Chris.

I thought I would never get this True Temper bar but it arrived today!! :D:D:D

here you can see, in the middle, a way to facilitate the work: the finished dropouts in variant precision castings.
Not quite so elegant, not quite as light (don't worry, Georg takes his own dropout. :D)

The bottom of the steerer will be still completed.

it's awesome! this fork is equal to 100% of the original fork.
..even the smallest details are considered.

Hi Ryan,

Of course it is 1" as the original Yo Eddy fork. I can't find any difference from the original fork. ;)
