Finally managed to get her in a rideable state and went out for the maiden ride this morning - despite the cold temp! Build 95% finished (awaiting black seat post and possibly sope ss specific black cranks):- Out and about:- First impressions are very positive, the...

I'll post an update on the forks once I have got the bike on the road and put a few miles on them. One of the reasons I opted for Carbon rather than Alu or Steel was the softening of the bumps as I havent ridden fully rigid in years (I think I upgraded to some 96 Marzocchi XCR's within months of...

cheers mark. I cant wait to get it properly finished, I think it will look even better! The forks are ebay specials for abot $140. They are made by carboncycles and are identical to white bros version, but nearly half the price. here is the first review I read about them...

Wow - that looks excellent - great job! I'm starting my Kona Singlespeed project in a few weeks and was toying with either Matt Black or White. After seeing these pictures, it's a no-brainer - White all the way!

That looks great - I'm about to get started in transforming my 94 Hahanna into a SS set up for riding around Manhattan. What did you do to be able to run a disc at the back? At the moment, I'm resigned to running front brake only as I can't run V's on the back with my disc only wheelset.
