WANTED rigid 29er forks

Post by mrgef »

Hi there, I'm after some rigid 29er forks disc brake compatible, with a decent length straight steerer, preferably steel or carbon. I've got some on one carbon forks I can swap with if you want, the steerer is too short for my bike.
Cheers

Hello mate that sounds promising. What size wheels have you been running on it? Could you measure the fork length for me please? And last request, can I see a picture by any chance?
Cheers dude

Mine is unused. Came on a frame designed for either 26 fat or 27.5 fat. 490mm axle to crown.

Struggling to add a pic as the file is too large apparently. It's been fitted but never ridden so is effectively new.

It's the same fork as in this link:

No problem sir! You are probably better off with the charge one then. Happy riding!

You mentioned a swap for some on one carbon ones, would you go for that? Each pays own postage.

Just messaged you about a price but yea more than happy to straight swap them!
Just tried to upload a photo but not having it unfortunately. They are on eBay now tho if you want to see them.
Just checked eBay to put a link to them and they've already sold! So will have to be a payment if you're still willing?
Cheers

The cross bit on the front I used to attach my myog bar harness. I can take it off or leave it on, up to you.
