Here's a heavily discounted trick fork. Seems like they do they job well enough, have seen quite a few pairs around.
What frame are you currently using?

I think he meant to write 'batspinable'. Come on, Tim, you know all about batspins.

Dakin, if you are going to be attempting tricks you may want to revise the kind of bike you buy/build, as if it's your only bike/transportation you will want it to survive the stress you may decide to put it through.
One final thing, don't know how long you've been riding for, but if you do get a fork to enable you to barspin, you'll be rolling brakeless so make sure your foot retention is strong and you can skid ambidextrously..Hope you find the info you need

You don't necessarily need to be brakeless. You can run a disc brake through the steerer tube.
You should ask a frame holder for tips on geometry and tubes etc.
I think a longer top tube and a pair of forks with zero rake will help for barspin clearance and help to reduce toe overlap -

Hi all
I just wanted a bit of advice/information regarding making frames barspinable.
Basically I want to build a proper track bike but want to learn a couple of simple tricks, eg. wheelies, barspinzz, skidz, keos and what not.
Apologies this was a bit of online rape done by a friend.
Apologies for the spam
