Threaded 1 inch steel fork - cheap (or free?!)

Posted on
  • Putting together a budget road build for a commuter, have just bought a steel 90s f+f but there is a problem with the fork.

    Does anyone have an old fork kicking around that I could have for cheap, or trade you some bits for? The frame is a 56, so that should give you a very rough idea of steerer length.

    Thanks :)

  • I’ve one, will dig it out of the shed and measure it up this evening. Think it came off a Falcon, has a nice crown. Ratty but sound. Will likely need to post if you’re in The London.

  • got one here as well if Rich @crossedthread can't sort for whatever reason

  • Evening
    Right, cosmetically looks rubbish but the tarnish is superficial
    Probably weights about 700g and has a nice ring, so possibly Reynolds 531, especially given the nice crown
    No mudguard eyelets though, maybe that’s not going to work for a workhorse commuter
    If the measurements work would be happy to post for £10?

  • Hmm
    Looks much worse in the pics than in real life
    Also, I think this might be off a 58 frame, steerer looks longer than I recall
    tl:dr don’t think this is the fork you’re looking for

  • Have one as well if needed, eyelets from memory, from Gazelle I think. Couple of paint scraps, otherwise OK. Blue in colour. Plus have 1" threadless too if that's an options

  • Thanks all but sorry for wasting your time - as usual I have got a bit carried away and am now looking for some decent-ish chromed steel forks!!!

  • Have got some reynolds 653 chrome Cougar forks as well!

  • Not threaded or steel I’m afraid. I’ve got a 1” Colombus Carve threadless carbon fork with an aluminium steerer if that’s of any interest?

  • I have these road ones, 18.5cm of steerer. Free if you can collect from E1.
    Edit:
    Just read your later post, here in case anyone else wants them
