Hello,


All after much biking around with a shabby front brake response my brother inlaw pointed out that my front forks are twisted! God knows why I never looked.. well the upshot of this is that I am now on the hunt for a replacement.. Not getting anywhere with this.. LBS ( we have lots here in Manchester ) aren't coming up with the goods. i can only find a fork that feels like it is cast from iron and comes with a bracket to hold a lamp? The rest of the frame is a raleigh reynolds 753 frame and is as light as a feather.

Anyone got a spare fork they don't need?

many thanks

Simon

you can get that steel fork re-alligned by a knowledgeable person.

Cheers for that... I'll get on the phone and see what I can find.. if anyone know anyone in the Uk please drop me a line.. I was worried that you couldn't adjust 753 tubing..


many thanks Queerpunk
