Co-Motion Supremo fork rake

Anyone know what the fork rake is on a 07' supremo? I may be shopping for a new fork. Mine may have a crack in the steerer tube. Front end goes squeak squeak while standing and while its very annoying, this problem needs to be addressed.

Depends on which fork do you have:

Wound-Up: 45mm
Wound-Up Duo: 44mm
True Temper Alpha Q X2: 44mm
Co-Motion's OEM Cromo: 50mm

Note, squeak, squeak can come from a lot of places... What makes you suspect the fork?

If it is your fork and if you currently have a Wound UP it can be replaced by Wound Up for $350.

That symptom is consistent with a QR skewer squeakinging inside the axle. Try removing the QR skewer greasing the skewer and re-tightening.

If that doesn't w fix it there are a number of othe possiblities,and checking the steerer is certainly prudent, but there are a number of more likely causes.
