I'm after a carbon fork to suit my 2014 Genesis Croix de Fer. Must have disc mounts and mudguard eyelets.. Can either buy straight or do a deal with my current SJS carbon disc fork (no mudguard eyelets).

Cheers

Hi @Technics100

I don't know if you have seen my project thread before - https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/252533/

In short, I needed disc forks with a short axle to crown measurement not to skew the bike geometry. It took me about 6 months to finally get those as I could only find ones with mini 400mm axle to crown.

Anyway, these are CXR carbon disc forks (made by Aprebic) which were originally fitted to a modern randonneur bike with 650B wheels, 1 1/8th alloy steerer, 385mm axle to crown.
Will take an IS Mounted Disc Brake and also has a hole for cantilever brakes.
Holes for Rack mounts half way up the fork and also by the axle.
Cable guides pre attached for disc brakes.

I paid £100 for them from the original owner (who had a bent frame due to an attempted theft) and Strava tells me that I have ridden 761km with them, that's just under 500 miles.

Are you just after the forks or are you interested in more parts such as the headset / 203mm disc set-up / hydraulic brake?

If you want the forks alone, I would be after £75.

Cheers,

Vince

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
