Peperonis on a Rascal? Pics up!

:cool: The Peps look good. Paint purple to match the front end. Oh how much i want 5 pairs of those forks. Are they heavy?

Nope, as it happens I weighed a pair yesterday... :LOL:
1" Pepperonis 120mm threaded steerer 715.5g
And they steer like nothing else I've ridden, so instant, great forks! :cool:

Purple does make sense, but my hesitation was that they would have to match perfectly where they meet the frame.
 
Yeah they are very light!
I really want to get a ringle stem to match the nos moby post. Would I be cursed and sworn at if I got a threadless 1 1/8 and got an adapter to fit it to the forks? or did the Ringle stems come in 1" quill?
Was talking to Scrat and he reckons to get a MC1... but they're even rarer over here then kleins themselves, would be nice though.
Anyone have an MC1 they want to throw my way in 1" quill? :D
 
Only thing with this Klein is that it's way to small for me... but I'm building it up for my partner so i can live vicariously through her.
 
I prefer too the Pepperoni than the suspension fork.
But…
When I see the pictures, there's something a little wrong for proportions.
The diagonal tube of a 'dale is really bigger than the klein's. A pepperoni fits very well on a 'dale, but the front tubes of the kleins seem to be smaller.
On hand, There's the attitude fork, very very big, but with a big head tube and combo. On other hand, athe cannondale frame with the different proportion.

I think the bend of the fork doesn't work with the frame.
Perhaps, you really need a klein mission control combo, which will balance the proportion.
 
I wonder how a tange strut would look? I agree with 24pouces, it looks alot better but not perfect.
 
Well you went ahead and did it. :cry:

Can you feel the pressure building up in your eye sockets? Shouldn't be long now and we'll all be able to hear the screaming. :shock:
