New forks
Hi,
I have managed to twist my folks out of alignment (no idea how), messing up the cantilevers and the general wheel alignment, on my 1993 Dawes Galaxy. I can still ride it, but it makes for adjusting the brakes and everything much more difficult, and I’m not convinced of the safety. Anyway, I was looking to get new forks, but the problem is finding 1” threaded forks with canti bosses and a nice 40-45mm rake for 700c wheels. Does anyone have any recommendations for this? I would also like them to be lugged, and look nice (like surly LHT forks). Any advice would be great! Thanks |
now this is where it's nice to have a frame builder in the neighborhood.

Google found this: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/700c-1-in...s¤cy=usd . No mention of rake, not lugged.
http://bikeisland.com/cgi-bin/BKTK_S...ls&ProdID=2354 actually fits all your requirements, if you are satisifed with the color blue. |
you need to get the dropout to crown distance correct or it will change the handling of the bike -- almost never for the better.

sjs will sort you out .

M Steel in Newcastle might build something..
UK still has a few frame building bike companies. they whipped out a small front rack for me in a couple days .. in 91. Mid tour, before I took a Ferry to Norway. |
