Project 2 forks

Re: Re:

Can't really make out the drops in that pic, but my 410mm (actually 413mm) TBs have very neat dropouts, not the pressed/welded in type of the less butted variety I've seen. Probably had about eight pairs so far from exhaustive research!

They're like this:

I thought these type dropouts were only on 395mm forks, and 410mm on had these:

.

please don't mention these;

Re: Re:

I'm pretty sure my old '94 Kilauea had 395mm a-c forks...

Thanks for bringing this up Reuben, I'd forgotten about this thread and it seems I did make a mistake (it was very early in the morning, I was late for work, the sun got in my eye's, yadda, yadda, yadda ). The P2 was not lengthened in '93 but it was in '94 (If your '94 Kilauea had a P2 with an a-c of 395mm I can't explain it). Luckily my typo would not have caused the OP to purchase the wrong fork. Aplologies all around gents. I have double checked the rest of my information and stand by it.

Fixed that for ya :roll:

The shrouded drop out was on the shorter '93 models and the longer '94 models. The lovely swooped dropout
appeared in '95 (all this is refering to the triple butted variety)
Below are some shots (bad, I know) of triple butted P2's, a '93(shrouded), '94(shrouded) & '95(swoop)

Re:

Swoops (Scoops?) are good,at least in early versions.
