Wanted: 1 inch threaded steerer fork

Looking for a fork: 1 inch threaded steerer, 240mm+ steerer, drilled for brake.

Budget is £40 max.

TALK TO ME

700c or 27" wheel?

Whoops, needs to be 700c.

For that reason, I'm out ;)

I got some of these recently. They give a pretty standard drop on a 700c wheel, weigh 850g and look decent. Good customer service from the seller too. They're drilled for nutted, rather than modern allen-bolt brakes, but that was dead easy.

Edit: they're "Akisu" branded, who did produce forks for some decent bikes, so they're not completely unknown.

Thanks, what's the tyre clearance like with 700c on that fork ffm?

Moderate, I'd say. I'll put up a picture later today.

Ok, here's some photos of 700c wheels on those forks. The tyre is a 25mm Schwalbe Lugano. As you can see I had to put the blocks all the way up on my (Tektro R316) calipers which have a nominal max drop of 57mm. I measured the drop as about 50mm as described here.

So they're definitely not track forks. There's plenty of room for mudguards but they don't look like a 700c wheel in a 27" fork.

Edit: really important point, the crown race is JIS, not ISO!
