Don't run red lights, wear a helmet, use hand signals, get some cycle lights(front and rear) and, FFS, don't run red lights!

I couldn't find it ith triple clamp just regular forks. It's a bicycle. You'll get what you pay for, that is, it will work for the warranty period.

You're better off spending your money in a good bicycle shop (NOT Evans cycles) with a full range of products not just a "catalogue/wallymart bikes" store.
