Need a new fork
Hi,
I crunched the front fork of my 27" (67.5cm) Fuji. I really like the bike, an early 80s Sagres.
The steer tube and fork crown are OK; can sandblast it on this end.
Any chance of cutting out the old forks and putting in new?
The steer tube is 22.2 and approx. 295mm tall (long?).
The bike can be viewed via my signature.

Thanks for your concern.
I have made contact with an Ed Litton, of California, who may be able to use
the original steer tube and crown.
