Easy! “Plug & play”’with a vintage RockShox Ruby fork for 700c road bikes. Not a bad idea. I rode one for years (25yrs ago) on a Specialized Allez Epic that is still in my basement. Has a lock out. Ruby requires another rear side pull brake b/c it uses the short mounting shaft of a Rr not a long shaft of a front caliper. I’ve seen them on EBay in 1” threaded and 1” ‘threadless. I check them occasionally in case I were to sell mine off my 56cm frame. I’ll prolly sell the bike complete with Ruby and OEM aluminum Specialized fork some day.

Rubys are still available on EBay $200-$250 “drive it off the lot”. I just copied the following from someone’s current listing I believe asking $250 NOS NIB.

NOS NIB Rock Shox Ruby SL 1" Non-Treaded Front Suspension Fork For 700c Road Bike.The Steerer Tube is 10 3/8 " long and un-cut. This complete fork set comes with owner's manual, spring set and Judy butter lube. This vintage fork is getting VHTF and will definitely take the edge of off rough roads.
