Orange C16r forks

[drawis]

Hi all,

Am about to pick up an Orange c16r in a 21" frame size, in a fetching silver finish.

However the front suspension forks are not really my cup of tea and I'd really like to get hold, ideally, of some of the original rigid forks.

I'm a novice so far as bike things are concerned but my 3 questions are:

(1) Does anybody have any!
(2) If I spot some used ones does the frame size dictate any particular measurements that I need to know, or does one size fit all?
(3) What new forks are available, in silver, that would do a decent job as replacements (at a not too silly price)?

Thanks in advance for what I know will be your helpful answers

I've got some NOS Orange F7 forks in silver available. Probably the same colour as your bike and the steerer's uncut so will defo fit. These originally came on the c16 so they should be just the job. PM me if your interested.
