I posted something in the classifieds section, but thought here might be better.
Basically I'm wondering where I can get a set of straight forks from. I recently learnt to barspin at trixie dix by popping a 650c wheel on my front, however it would be nice to see if it's possible to do this with my regular wheel by sticking some straight forks on my bike. The only problem is that they need to be 1" threaded rather than a-head ones.
however all of the straight forks I've seen still have an angle between the stem bit and the fork itself. I've seen a few of the charge bikes with what seem to be pretty straight ones.
can anyone point me in the right direction as to where to find some? I spoke with 14 Bike co the other day and they said they could make some for about £80 which is a great deal for some bespoke ones, but I't might be simpler to just buy some ready made ones.
