Decent performing mid-late 90s sus fork

[klunkrider]

Sorry to jump on your thread @klunkrider but can anyone advise of a retro suspension fork that has a 1” steerer to help me with my search?

No need to apologise.

Might not be retro enough for you but there was a marzocchi mx comp with a 1” steerer for sale on here last week.

I received that mc35 today and as suggested, it just isn’t right for the direction I’m going with the build.

I’ll post a classified ad for it shortly.

I’ve now bought a marzocchi z3 flylight that I’m hoping fits the bill.

I didn’t see it. I also need a steerer 225mm long.
Thanks

1" steerers are available up to 300mm.

Thanks for that but they’re a little too modern.

I've had Marzocchi and Pace forks with 1" steerers, also had some Rockshox Judy(?) & SID forks that were 1" (Threadless) steerer, they're just far less common than the 1"1/8 versions.
The more retro you go the easier it is to find 1" steerer forks, whether they are still in working order is another matter....

I’ll keep my eyes peeled and hopefully something will crop up in time…
