Can Anyone Recomenderise Me Some Straight Chrome Forks?

Hi all,
Looking for some good solid, small to zero rake chrome forks for my Steamroller(1"1/8th).
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Oh, and they gotta fit 28Cs.

Hmm steel forks in 1 1/8, nearly impossible to get, unless from an EAI Bareknuckle frame... Easier to order a custom made one, but that would be expensive :(

Bollox.

Kona Project 2 then get it chromed yerself?

What's up with the Surly forks or are you just ready for a change?

There are some 2nd hand 700c P2s on Gumtree if you go that route - save £$s but they will have canti bosses.

I just want it tighter at the front.

I believe it would enhance my enjoyment of the bicycle immeasurably.
:)

P2s - too bulky.

Fair play. I think I've still got some carbon forks somewhere with very small rake. You could wack those on for a while if you like/I can find them.

How much would you like for them? Would need to take a look.

Let me see if I still have them first (They're already on loan to someone else and I haven't seen them for a while).

Don't go to any trouble though, seriously.
I don't want you going out of your way for something I am not sure about.
Ideally of course I'd want chrome steel.
Carbon could look out of place on that green plus silver bike.

Valid. I'd forgotten that there was no black on your Surly.

I was looking for 1" chrome forks a while back. two sources I found (outside ebay) were:

1. BLB have a bucket or two full of chrome forks. may be worth a look, although might all be 1"?
   
2. Holdsworth Cycles in Putney can order direct from Reynolds - chrome 531 were about £50-60. might be worth a call to see if they can get 11/8"?

JS, would they be able to order un-drilled track forks 1"??
edit sorry to jump yer thread ma3k.

not sure - I was looking for drilled so never asked. in the end I bought some NOS GIOS forks from ebay, mostly because BLB couldn't be arsed to look downstairs for the forks I wanted and Holdsworth never got back to me after I ordered them.

murtle, i had a look for you last sun at BLB, lots of chrome but all drilled :)

who cares if it's drilled
