X5 brand new 70mm offset low-trail Chromoly Masi lugged steel forks to find new homes.
Will be back in the UK for a week from Sat so figured it’d be the ideal time to move these on. Leftover as a toe-overlap fix on the Speciale Randonneur 2016 smaller sizes (same metallic navy hew). Proper low-trail offset giving sub 40mm trail numbers at hopefully an experimental/accessible price for most. Will be in London this weekend (8/9th Dec) but will hopefully be able to leave any leftover with @cake for any that can’t make a collection this weekend.
Trail w/ 73Deg HT...
650bx42 = 30mm
Forward facing dropouts w/ double eyelets
Lowrider/mid eyelets
IS disc mount
Lugged flat crown w/ nice Masi embossed Masi Crest (drilled)
395mm Axle-Crown
70mm offset
Uncut 300mm steerer
50mm Crown clearance towards top of tangs. Clears WTB Horizon w/ approx. 3-4mm clearance each side (pictured). Probably not enough for a (meaningful) fender but 650bx42 would likely be fine. Stock spec for ref. was 700x35c w/ 45mm mudguard (sorry no 700c wheel/tyre combo on hand to photo for illustration).
Pickup/collection from Tottenham/Seven Sisters
Thorn are £100-£135 for a comparable fork so how’s £50 each for a (hopefully) quick sale sound? Drink for the forum when they go too! Photos to follow...
