Brother cycles pinecone, retro?

True, but tb p2s with long steerer tubes are like hens teeth.

When suspension Forks were the "must have" but not supplied on many bikes, probably 95, we were given a hundred pairs or so, including p2s and gt 3ds, by another shop, who'd upsold the customer the suspension, but had no market for the rigid. All long gone now.

We all know there's a box of nos tb p2s in dusty backrooms here and there - we just need to find them before the reciever gives them to the scrap man.

I shudder to think of the number of decent rigid forks that ended up with the scrap man, after people 'upgraded' their bikes with suspension forks...

Must admit, about 15 years ago I was in "Northwest mountain bikes" in Cheadle, as a friend was having some work done.

I happened to ask if they had any rigid forks lying around; the guy went upstairs to the store room and brought down a nice gold pair of TB P2s, just with storage marks on them. "£20 ok?" He said. I only had £17 on me but he was fine with that.
