Wanted: Barspin forks 1 1/8th

Posted on
  • I'm after the Identiti Park fork in black/white or something similar. Ideally pretty good condition, but will consider most. It's for a Volume cutter V3 so if anyone can recomend something different for a cheapish price, no more than 50ish that would be great! Cheers. Nick.

  • try trick track forum
    they are all tricksters and shit

  • i will have a look now, cheers.

  • some of the dmr forks are nice, very heavy though

  • check ebay, kona p2 are cheap and give good clearance

  • I'm riding a Cutter and I bought a set of jump forks from Shop 14. Think they were £80.

  • ^ crazyjames recomended some from Shop14 but i didn't really want to spend that much 50 is the max ideally. Will 700's fit in all of these forks, i'm getting confused.

  • get them then

  • I'm asking a question, i don't know anything about the 'tricks' side of things. I'm getting pretty confused with the forks situation, 26" wont take 700's? I need Fu Manchu's or something like that to run 700 and barspin? Any help would be much apreciated!

    no 26inch will often take a 700c and barspin, check the axle to crown height of the different forks you are looking at

  • the above one's say 45cm axle to crown, so that would work?

  • I'm riding a Cutter and I bought a set of jump forks from Shop 14. Think they were £80.

    I'm sure they've still got the handsome dog ones for around £60 thats what i'm running, low enough axle to crown, to not totally fuck the geometry, tough as nails, and barspins, just get yourself down to shop 14 and ask if they've got any left, failing that I guess its gonna be the identiti's 450mm is quite a high axle to crow, you want ideally no more than 425mm if you're putting a 26 inch fork on 700c wheels. The shop 14/handsome dog ones sit at 415mm if I remember correctly, which feels pretty much spot on geometry wise for tricks :)

  • nice one, that's a big help! I know what to look for now, i will try and get down shop14 but i rarely go into london during the day. Cheers for ya help.

  • anybody run Charge Nozzle forks, if so what do people think? Can't seem to find the axle to crown measurements either.

  • Hi im thinking of getting those Unknown forks (the ones pictured above). But I want to make sure the I'll still be able to run a front brake with a 700 wheel. Will it work or will the brake sit too far away from the wheel?
    cheers

  • i think it might be quite far away as they are 450 a2c i think. If you're london based then head down to shop14 and get some of their jump forks, they are only £20 deerer, that's if they have any in stock still.
