Hi I'm still on the look out for a vintage front fork - with a steerer of 16cm or longer,
Its for an old reynolds 531 frame with nervex lugs, it needs to have a flat crown and probably be pre 80s........... I've been hunting high and low for this so if anyone knows where I might find one let me know!

I've got a flat crown 27" fork, has fading black/orange paint and that braze on on the right fork leg (rack?), 180mm steerer, I'll take some pics now if you like. I dunno if it's 531 or not however.

I've got a flat crown chrome 27" fork, very tidy apart from a little bit of bubbling at the dropouts

Not exactly sure if they're 27", but the pics are taken with a 700c wheel so i guess there's enough room for 27" wheels. If you happen to have some similar 700c forks with an 183mm steerer then I'd happily do a trade...

Indeed, an Ernie Clements Falcon, not sure what year or material, I'm sure you could find out though.

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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.
