I thought I'd ask before I buy one this week.
Gotta be a front and be in reasonable condition.

Forks are way too nice to drill!

Thanks

What kind of forks? Round?
I have one that I won't need anymore as soon as I've replaced my frame.

I need one by Friday really.
Forks are round but I think an oval one would also fit as I've had one of those before...

I might be into one too in the near future if it's still going....

Hmm. Unfortunately I'll still need mine by then.

If you forks are round, I wouldn't use an oval clamp. The brake is possibly the most load bearing part of the bike and clamp brakes are already pretty flexy by nature.

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.
