1 inch MTB forks

[ic1reevey]

i'm wanting to replace my pace RC36 with some rigid forks on my DOGSBOLX. i've got a 1 inch aheadset and the old steerer tube is 225mm long. i'm struggling to find a fork to fit, any leads anyone?

Pace RC30 (1st or 2nd generation) in 1" flavour would look very cool on a BOLX, the good thing about this is steerers are interchangeable and they are not that rare....expect to pay £80 upwards for a pair.

Post an add in the Wanted section

Yeah RC30 would be cool, or even ring up Chas and ask for a price on a new pair to suit his old masterpiece, I'm sure he'd be touched

And if you want to sell the RC36's let me know

cheers chaps, will have a butchers.

Chas will want a mint! Any framebuilder could knock something up. I used some early Marin forks on a build as they had classic, curved & tapered shape I was after.

Chas is not making the old forks that he used to.

He currently has my DB and when I dropped it off we discussed the topic.

Maybe though if there was enough interest he may consider buying the material to make a few sets. Food for thought.

I used RC 30's on my DB BITD and they were absolutely ace, they tightened up the steering and made for a fantastic ride. Here is a link to my thread that will one day be closed when finished. Maybe this year.

I've still got a pair of the old rigid forks and also a stem.

Wow, I will be in touch. :shock:

Standard black with white Roberts decals on the stem, a blue anodized stem bolt retainer and ti stem bolt.

Forks are white crown, black legs.
