mini fork length and rake
I'm in the process of building my son a frame. All I need are some measurments for the fork. Info on mtb's and road forks is easy for find but it seems no one measures bmx forks. I need the offset and the length for a mini fork. If all else fails I guess I'll have to buy one or go to a few lbs and see if they have any mini's in stock. I'm pretty sure the offset is around 1.5". If you know what these measurements are, please post.
btw length is measured from center of axle to top of crown (or to the bottom of headset)

I posted it at www.frameforum.net a while ago and no one answered. I figured it was probably the same bunch. If no one has the time to pull a measurement on a fork I'll just buy one and measure it myself.
