Look at this beauty I came across the other day. A terrible paint job, and forks missing, but good chrome and no dents, cracks or corrosion. It will have to go into storage until I can get round to working on it, but meantime I will seek out a chrome Precisia fork.
I'm always wary of quality vintage race frames missing the fork, and run my fingers under the head lugs like the village idiot with a dead snake
- but a precisa fork is so desirable it could easily have been taken for a different job. (And this looks straight too, and I'm sure you checked)
At least it can have a short steerer - but it's rare to find one in nice condition under £200
- and you could buy a bike for that
(not one of these though)
Indeed you can still buy the straight precisia fork, they are €400 so no thanks! If I haven't come across a fork by the time I paint it, then it will have to go on the wall until I do find one. Which would be a shame.
