kind enough to point out the bit about needing suspension corrected ... so, I contacted Surley and I was pointed
in the direction of the "Troll" front forks. Basically the same as your "Big Dummy" forks, just a few grams lighter.
To me, the weight difference doesn't make any difference and I don't know if one is less expensive then the other ...
Just thought I'd mention that, with Surley there is more than one choice.
