• ^Found this in Camberwell

    Planning to build it up for a friend as a cheap beater / commuter.

    No forks, but I have a chrome set with too short steerer and mangled threads. Planning to cut the threaded section off and install one of those steerer extender things. Never used one before so is that a mad idea?! Ideally I’d just source some cheap forks with the correct steerer length if anyone has a set.

    What length steerer/A2C/steerer diam./etc.?

    I have some funky aluminium bladed, threaded 1" forks off one of these. A2C ~370mm, steerer ~170mm, threaded section ~43mm. Was going to try to return them (steerer too short) but to save the hassle £15 posted (less than what I paid) to anyone who wants 'em. Ugly but they'd be fine sprayed black.

  • Thanks, they would probably fit fine but before I say yes I’ll measure the head tube and have a proper root around in the stash of parts I’ve got in the basement. Thinking about it I’m sure I’ve got a threadless steel 1inch fork down there somewhere with a long steerer...
