Looking for a 1" straight fork
I'm looking for a 1" straight for for my track bike.
220mm length at least. Preferably in chrome (silver) finish. And available in (or shipped to) Europe. All for about $US 150 Like this one: http://www.origin-8.com/product_deta...rack&cl1=FORKS Any ideas? |
I dont know any silver/chrome ones, but I do know Affinity makes lugged straight 1" fork.

thanks squeegeesunny, they only color they have is matte black but it could be an option. At $28 the shipping is reasonable.
I also found the Soma but they don't ship outside US. Anyone know of a shop that does (or is in Europe?) |
Give http://www.mosquito-bikes.co.uk/ a call. I think they stock Soma stuff.
|
|
If you can't find a place, I can order a Soma fork at the shop where I work and ship it to you. PM me if interested.

I bought one of these 6 years ago and still love it.

Thanks for all your answers, the results so far:
- Soma seems to have the best match. - Mosquito Bikes in the UK cannot help me, they no longer sell Soma and do not have an alternative. - the one one eBay looks good, but no reference and rather expensive... - The bikecult.com website is down? |

Assuming it's 1" threadless. Urbane cyclist in toronto should still sell those for about $75. Shipping is as is from there. Give them a call 416-979-9733

Uh, guys. In case you hadn't noticed, theBear is banned.

Thank Christ! Maybe he'll go bother the dudes at tricktrack.org for a while...
|
OK, thank you all for the tips and especially to wearyourtruth as my sister just picked up the fork at Brick Lane Bikes for £67!
