Wound Up Track Fork

Posted on
  • Looking for a Wound Up Track Fork.

    Cheers.

  • I have a brand new 1" threadless wound up pair of forks, never been cut down, steel steerer. £299.

  • Send me a PM with your best Price.

    Thx.

  • They're only £240 at the current exchange rate, with free shipping, brand new from Aspire Velo Tech.

    Ok yeah, you have to think of import tax etc but £299 seems a little expensive considering most second hand options in very good condition go for about £100 - £150!

    @rirty there's a pair on eBay I've been watching for ages at something like $160 - have a look there!

  • @Dick I've been watching on e-bay too, but all I can find is road ones for £164+P&P

    For $160 it may be worth it for me to get them in via a mate of mine in the USA.

  • @JWestland you looking for 1" or 1 1/8th "

  • I always found that the track ones were nearly never available on Aspire Velotech.

    I signed up for that "email me when they're back in stock" thing, so when the email came through at 3.15am I bought them.

    If you want new ones then just take it on the chin and suck up the charges and costs.

    Personally, I'd never buy second hand carbon - once bitten, twice shy.

  • 1" but 30 rake. So I think only Zephyr works...

    A new one is a bit too much £££ for me alas :)

  • TBH, I used road ones on my Cannondale and found the rake and clearance more than adequate for purpose. I guess it depends on your frame and your useage. 35deg rake is pretty naughty!

    The problem with the eBay ones aswell; they now do this bollocks "international shipping" shit which means there are "minimum order costs" and "import duties" already added on.
    When you get to checkout, they're $300, almost double the sellers quote!

    I've emailed asking for a workaround and despite the seller saying he opted out of international shipping service etc there seems no way around the auto min order and auto import few additions nowerdays.
    Unless that seller is just a lier/retard as they're the only things I've looked at buying from the states on eBay in a long time.
    I bought my last two pairs of WoundUp's from the states via eBay and they worked out about $150 a pair.
    Didn't get charged a penny of import and none of this shipping bollocks.

    That was a few years ago though.

  • Mind you, I did take advantage of a mate who travels to the US fairly regularly...

  • Hm I managed to get a sneaky workaround a few weeks ago with a USA seatpost, but that's outside the international shipping program (under £26 so I hope no charges)

    I happen to know somebody in the USA if needed. The last Zephyr was still pretty £££ when it sold a few weeks ago.

    The original fork rake is 28. It has a All City fork now, which is nice but even by my non weenie standards very heavy.

    It's this one here (original fork on it) https://lfgss.microcosm.app/api/v1/files/6dcacee56fbd8552f23f29fd299bc62c11e20597.jpg

  • Thx mate @Dick

    On the eBay I've only seen the road model (43 rake) I need the track model for a custom frame.

  • There was a zyphyr two weeks ago but went for £160 (special paint job) so not worth import I guess over new..

  • Are you still interested? The ones I have are brand new and in their box.

  • I'm going to get a steel fork made, so no need for a track Woundup.

    Tx for checking ^_^
