Yeah, I’ve got a nice Cro Mo italian 700c fork just beggin to be swapped out, as well as a 105 headset and some Shimano 600 arabesque cranks 165mm.all that shit would suit the lugged frame better methinks.
not wanting to pull an old thread up, but my last thread was locked before i could reply, so i’ll comment here, just wondering did anyone confirm that they are shipping with 27" forks ?
but i dont really want to paint them or get them chromed, and im unlikely to get a decent set of forks finished for $50 the difference between coming with forks and not coming with forks.
if you scavenge around, and are lucky in a tip/recycle shop you may find a complete donor bike with 700c fork that has a steerer lenghth to suit for a fitty.Some other bits off it may be of use on your build also.
