Need a fork

Posted on
  • Courtesy of Greenwich council potholes, I have snapped my front fork and nearly some knee ligaments.

    My bike is only a couple of months old from its build so am pretty gutted, would anyone have a spare mash histogram (large) spare fork or frameset they’re willing to split? I’m likely going to have to accept something compatible if anyone has any ideas?

  • No fork I’m afraid but are you going to put a claim into the council? I always thought they could be held liable for this type of damag. I’ve heard of car drivers claiming for wheel repairs.

  • You can usually only claim if pot hole was reported more than given period previously.
    But worth a try.

  • It won’t have the same paint job but I’m pretty sure this is the same fork:

    It’s mine so let me know if interested. Cheers

  • I’m going to give the claim a go, I guess it does depend on when their last inspection or report was.

    @aniki thanks for sharing your fork which is up for sale, i’ll see what is about but that could well be something i’ll go for!

  • Got an Easton EC90 carbon fork here...

  • Thanks for the replies, but managed to get hold of a new fork to match my colourway (at a small fortune).
