I can't see me using this on any of my current projects, so it's time to move it on. A really nice lugged and brazed straight blade fork built by Bob Jackson. Deep section oval blades, reminiscent of Max OR, and some lovely brazing at the dropouts. Has some scuffs and scrapes but really doesn't warrant repainting, unless it's going on a show bike. The 1" steerer (for 22.2mm quill stem) is 130mm long, with the top 32mm portion threaded. A-C measures approx 390mm. Asking £95 including UK postage for this.

Lovely!!! And below a ton too (£100 for non UK slang!).

Don't get many forks like this selling for less than £100!

Seen quite a few Chas Roberts up for sale recently without forks so this would go well with them too. I think @Spanky22b should just get them and arrange to get them sent straight to Dan! 🤣
 
I think they are Max OR, they look exactly like the forks on my old Donohue, they have a flattish oval section behind the brake studs and then it tapers - a bit like the chainstay does

Nice! Ok £150 then 🤣
 
AND post to Dan's is included! 🤣

If they are Max OR, I'll buy them and flip them on eBay. JOKE!

PROPER BARGAIN ALERT!
 
You've got me intrigued who's Dan Chambers  can he do magic things like Paul Brodie

He's our resident frame building, and general metalwork, wizard @danson67

Not sure what his workload is like at the moment though
