Wanted: MTB Suspension Forks

Slowly building up a relatively budget MTB build and looking to get hold of some Front Sus forks

• Around 100mm travel
  
• Decent name preferred: Rockshox, Marzocchi, Fox etc
  
• Must have remote lock out
  
  

Budget of around £100

Can pick up from anywhere around London

Cheers

If you're willing to sacrifice the fr

fr?

If you're willing to source the remote lockout switch elsewhere (or just do without, as it's unnecessary clutter) then I have a set of rockshox revelations that could be right up your street. They're u-turn, so can be adjusted from 100 to 130 mm travel in seconds. I always ran them at 130mm as testified by the condition of the stantions at their fullest extent where they have lost some of their coating, though it doesn't seem to affect their performance. They had a seal service less than 100 miles ago.

Good bits
Quite light
Lockout- currently on fork
Decent length steerer
Quite good condition

Bad bits
'Need' remote lockout switch
Stantion rub

I was hoping to sell these for a little more to be honest, but I'm lazy and haven't got round to it. If you're interested let me know and I'll do you some pics when I'm done at work

Definitely interested, so would love to see some pics.

Complete novice to suspension forks - whats the impact of Stantion rub?

aesthetic

Aesthetics is fine, as long as they work.

thanks dicki

Yeah, it's nothing too drastic anyway, just wanted to make you aware of anything that's not ideal.

If you're newish to mtb don't get too hung up on the remote lock out lever thing, On the Revs above to lock them takes a second, but you have to drop your hand to the top of the right fork stantion instead of press a switch on the bar. There's the option to fit a remote, but it's more weight and cable to flop about.

I'll get some pics up for you, what bike are you putting them on?

To be honest, I think I was getting my terminology mixed up - Don't need the remote, just the lockout.

Currently they are going to go onto a cheapy Sintesi frame - aim is to put decent components onto a cheap frame, and if I get decent use out of it to upgrade the frame.

Looking forward to the pics!

I've got some old Rockshox Pikes 454 (air) that have plenty of life left.
(Plus loads of internal spares).

Can be run from 110 to 140mm
Not that light though.

Plus might be worth adding how much steerer you need to your description.

Not sure how much steerer I need yet (frame is still in delivery), but its an 18" frame

How much you looking for and have you got any pics?

PM'd you

I can give you a shock pump plus full set of internal spares/seals etc. based in Crouch End.
The steerer maybe too short at 7"
Erm.. £80 collected?
