I took a calipers to my front fork and it was narrower than 50mm at the location where I think the Big Apple would be their widest. So it would be a $125 gamble to buy the Big Apples and have the LBS attempt to install them. I've read the BAs are a bear to install. I'd have a go at it myself otherwise.
