Hi, I am looking for a pair of alloy forks, with a 1" unthreaded (aheadset) steerer that is longer than 200mm. I am looking for 700c. They don't seem to be around anywhere.

Also, as this is my first self-build single speed, I need forks on a low budget, i.e. £30. If anyone has anything like this, that would be great. I'm sure people must take them off their bikes to replace with carbon, but where do they go?

Also, I am willing to swap bike parts if wanted. I have:
Shimano hyperglide 7 spd cassette
Tioga racing saddle
4 lots of weinmann rear long reach brakes, no pads
1 rear dia-compe brake, no pads

I had forgotten I had even asked on LFGSS. I'm three bikes down the line now!

Formatting Help

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:

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

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
