Wanted: Brake disc front end: 1 1/8 Straight Forks, 700c wheel, front brake set up

~~I am working on a new project and I am looking for a complete brake disc front end.

1 1/8 forks (not suspended), circa 380mm a-c, 700c wheels, minimum 215mm of steerer

The forks that are currently on the bike give a 380mm axle to crown and I don't want to skew the geometry too much so I am looking for disc forks with 'close' clearance. So probably cyclocross forks or something like that.

Budget wise, say £150 for a good complete front end.

Happy to take separate bits but I will need to have the forks first.

Colour doesn't really matter at this stage but nothing super heavy otherwise I might as well go for these ugly ones:

Let me know what you have

Cheers

Hey Vince - I have a wheel and disc brake combo which may suit if you can find a fork. Will PM you.

I have replied to PMs.

I would prefer location the forks first before getting carried away with a front brake / wheel which isn't compatible.

So still on the lookout!

Cheers

i have a van nicholas cross disc carbon forks 400mm a to c , hope on a23 wheel and a deore hydro front brake......any good....prolly won't fit in 150 but a little over...unless you want separate bits.....the priciest is the forks.....wheel and brake is secondary:)

Sounds too good for me.

Pictures to tempt me please but those forks are probably out of my budget :-(

wheels comes with hardshell 25c and 160mm shimy rotor
brake works a treat, hose i cut to fit cross forks or short mtb forks like 420mm a to c

Surly Disc Trucker Fork 1 1/8 Inch Steerer for 26 Inch Wheel - Black

These would be ideal as the a-c is 376mm.

Anyone has spares?

who cares how they handle as long as the axle-crown is exact right?

Exactly!

Does anyone have advice on reasonably priced forks?

I have now ordered a carbon wheelset (50mm wide carbon clincher, front disc hub, rear track) so I kinda blown the budget
