Just wondering if any one knows what the axel to crown Length on a Big One Inch fork for pre 96 suspension corrected bikes is.
I'm considering going for a Vicious Cycles fork while I wait for a possible Fat Chance fork and they seem to do either 425mm or 413mm lengths. Any ideas which one would be correct? Thanks Will |

Will would like to see that fork somewhere, that you are considering as your waiting replacement in lieu of the 'big one inch'. I have been considering the Ti rigid fork that 'Global cycles' are selling for 05. Have emailed them already to see if they would do a 1" steerer. Another option that i have brushed on is a 'no travel' fork from the guy that imports 'I#', know what i mean, don't want to have to go down these paths, really getting bored waiting for the pucker 'big one' to come out, cheers alan, bedford.

They're made my a well respected U.S frame builder and imported into the U.K by these guys:
http://www.sortedcycles.com/ViciousP...iousforks.html Even though they're unicrown forks they have 1.5 offset which I think is right, plus you can have them painted to match your frame at extra cost. Will |

Will, thanks for the lead mate,reminds of a project two fork. Get this just ordered a merl#n oreas 05 and was looking for a rigid fork for this build, cos i want to fit discs front and back, looks like this could be a strong contender, was going for a pace 31, but somehow lost it since the RC30 days, let one of those go, bugger. alan, bedford.
