not exactly what you want, came from a 24" frame I think so pretty long, campag dropouts.

Have some 531 forks with a nice lugged crown and campag dropouts, would seem appt for a 60s build. I bought them off a chap as a replacement for my bent track forks but as soon as they arrived I managed to find a nice set of track forks that suited my bike better. Down side is they were hastily rattle-canned black by the previous owner. No mudguard eyes, pretty average looking rake and reasonable clearance. Nice forks, just not right for a track frame. Think the steerer is about 170mm. PM me if interested.

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

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
