  • Anybody into cycle speedway? Can you help me source a fork? Second hand through a club or a hint to an offer.

    I'm about to buy this frame: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/229911/ from the current owner, but in the mean time the fork has gone missing.

    It's 1 1/8 steerer and I want it to be lugged, which rules out archie wilkinson.

  • Wilkinson was gonna be my only suggestion.

    Do you know the a2c of the original fork?

    Do you need the steepness of the speedway fork?

    I'm looking at my Surly Hack/Steamroller fork (which is 1 1/8" and lugged) and thinking it can't be much longer than a Wilkinson speedway fork - 700c with small clearances for small tyre = 26" for with lots of clearance for a larger tyre?

  • Thanks, doesn't have to be zero rake, but definitely considerable less than road forks.
    most 700c forks around that size are way too narrow at the crown.
