On the Huffy, it is indeed a suspension corrected fork meant for mountain bikes & the spokes on the disc-side of the wheel do sit further inboard than the other side making everything look funky up front but its all straight when mounted. That was just a weird angle pic.
I love how the fork w/ extension echoes the rear "fork" tho.
I also left the big Huffy stickers on to deter thieves!

Same-length spokes would put the rim too far to the right side of the bike, correct? My disc hubs' disc-side flange is further inboard than the non-disc side, so same-length spokes would have the rim centerline to the bike's right. Something certainly looks funky, though, whether it's a little crooked in the dropouts or just the angle of the pic. "
