It appears just about all suspension forks are tapered. Might be worth looking up older models
Looks like budget end forks are available

Re:
I'd probably prefer a Reba as I know my way around them and have a few spares.
As far as I'm aware, the CSU on a 26, 27.5 and 29 Reba is the same, and I have a couple of them to play with. I can get my hands on a new 27.5 solo air lower leg assembly. I believe the solo air is CSU not lower leg dependent so these should work. I just need to figure out what length of rebound and air dampers I'll need. Anyone have any ideas here? Pretty sure I have some 100mm 29er parts so I'd guess these would make the 27.5 slightly longer travel wise than 100mm?
My other slightly unknown is that the csus I have are older than the lower legs by a year or two. The od should still be the same, so hoping that I can slot something together.
