20" fork for V brakes, 1 1/8th inch

If anyone has one I am interested.

I also may eat my hat if there is one knocking about....

I have another kids project bike on the go. Weighs a ton, suspension fork doesn't move, it has to go.

I've got a BMX front fork with 1.1/8 steerer in very good condition, any good to you?
Also have a very good condition front wheel from same, barely any marks on the braking surface though a couple of the nipples have some tarnishing.

£15 posted for the fork, say another £5 for the wheel.

That looks pretty ideal, do you mind measuring the length of the steerer and also the distance from drop out to the crown please? And a photo of the wheel if you have one

Thanks!

steerer length is 170mm
crown to upper part of drop out is 313mm on the diagonal, if you want me to measure in a different way just say.

wheel, needs the bearings relubing but spins okay without grinding as is.
Apologies for crappy photo, no natural light.

I've sent you a message
Cheers!

I have this if it interests you, 20" with V and disc mounts, 20mm (?) travel. 1⅛ steerer, threaded at the top. I think it came off an old folding shopping bike. I can measure the steerer tomorrow for you.

Sorted?
I might have something if not.

Sorted thanks. I do need two top hat washers for the forks though.

Does anyone have any knocking about? Or can you point me in the right direction of where I can get them?

Been catweazle-ing some bmx stuff in my cave. Definitely saw 1 of those washers in there, I'll look for the other tonight.
They were tricky to find and expensive when I picked them up about 10 years ago. That or I was rubbish at looking.

Will report back

OR I probably have an old wheel similar to the one above knocking about.

Here is the bike with the new fork fitted. I think it is about 1kg lighter than before!
