Looking for a steel fork
1 1/8" straight steerer
Straight blade legs
Caliper/rim brake
28/32c ish clearance

No unicrown nonsense
Would consider a svelte carbon number with the same criteria as above (notwithstanding crown criteria)

The green one you gave me?

Not if you want it but if it won't get used then sure :)
Reckon its possible to shorten the legs slightly? I'd like to use short drop brakes

Futura sl?

Hulsroy in reply to @PhilDAS

The angle on the legs is already set so shortening them wold make dropouts sit less than 100mm apart.
But I reckon the forks will fit standard shimano brakes?? I can check

Not mine - won’t suit the build I’d planned...

Edit - actually they might work but I want something with a flat crown for some dynamo mods

Probably gonna be too much £ but how much do you want?

PhilDAS in reply to @mattyc

I’ll add them to watching just in case. Something in nicer steel would be good though

How about the segmented ones @jimjamos is selling? They are quite neat

PhilDAS in reply to @Hulsroy

Nice but I’m not sure they’ll go with my frame

Got some Bob Jackson alleycat forks... black, straight blades with rake. Taken off an 853 frame but not sure what steel these use. PM me if they sound like your thing and I’ll send over pix etc

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
