I have just picked up a Super V900 with the carbon rear swing arm. The shock bushes and mounts would ideally be replaced. Does anyone know where to buy the parts please? Many thanks

Hi Rich The axle is a standard 9mm quick release. The steerer ideally needs to be at least 220 mm might be able to work with a little shorter. Diameter 1 1/8th A-C is not critical except the radius of the combined rim and tyre is 360mm so needs to have adequate clearance above that and be taper...

I’m afraid to say I think I missed your reply and certainly never thanked you - I apologise. Your post explains exactly what I need thank you

LGF thank you for the photos and dimensions. Unfotunately after re-measuring this is going to be too short. A threaded minimum of 245mm is needed and longer for an Ahead.

Thank you for that. Let me check the fit with my no longer teenage son who’s frame this is and I will get back to you tomorrow.

Good morning, did you manage to find the forks if so may I have some pictures please?

Thank you If it’s Japanese will it be a JIS headset or standard?

Hi LGF Thank you for the message. I am not familiar with the forks but I do have a suitable headset. May I have further information please? Many thanks David

I have just picked up an old frame with a 210mm head tube but unfortunately my existing forks are all 2 short. I am looking for a steerer of a minimum of 245mm if threaded, longer if Ahead. Reynolds 531 would be nice to match the frame but at this stage not essential. Many thanks

I have a set of black double butted direct drives with a 200mm steerer including 30mm of thread which I could be tempted to sell.

Thank you very much. However I think that fork takes a 135mm axle and I need 100mm.

How long is long enough please?

Good morning With all this dry weather I am trying to create a diet fat option using 26x3” tyres as an alternative to my Charge Maxi Does any one have a rigid disc fork with suitable clearance please?

Good afternoon I am looking for a Rigid Disc Fork for a standard 100mm Hub and with the clearance for a 26 x 3” tyre. Does anyone have anything suitable please?

Thank you. I am concerned about the JIS /ISO issue with the square taper bottom bracket as I am using a Shimano bb with a Raceface Crank. Is this really likely to be a concern?

Fair question: shorthand for ordinary Cranks used with a single ring. The X type are FSA V drive and the square tapers are Raceface.

Good afternoon All My teenage son has an ongoing issue with his Single Speed Cranks: they keep on suddenly coming loose and falling off! This has happened with both X type and square taper Cranks. It has occurred on both drive and non-drive sides. In both cases I would suggest they were...

Thank you. I hoped there would be a quick solution but no I know that there isn’t I will persevere.

I have recently bought a pair of Manitou forks in need of tlc. Upon opening, I find that most of the original elastomer stacks have beem removed. Unfortunately the metal spacing washers have been put back in situ but are stuck in the gloopy remains at the bottom of the lowers. How do I clean...

I have a set of Magura Quake forks with Firmtech mounts but unfortunately they have knackered stanchions. Are replacement stanchions available anywhere please? Alternatively, I see a number of later Magura forks e.g. Phaons have the Firmtech mounts but don’t have the pivot bush inserts. Are...
