Retro Newbie
I have a pair of these in literally perfect mechanical working order, think they are 100mm travel, steerer hasn't been cut regularly serviced by myself and the former owner.

I have resprayed them twice, as the original yellow paint and x vert decals were battered through regular use. Initially I sprayed them Viper Green (same colour at porsche carrera GT3) and did an excellent job, more recently I allowed a friend who was practicing to become a body shop painter have a go at spraying them rubberised matt black and he messed it up a bit. Other than that theyre in amazing condition!

I'm currently struggling to find a disc brake mount to fit them though, all of the ones I've tried to use for these forks and Hayes stroker ryde, with 180mm (7inch) discs. Any ideas where I might get one that will fit? If not i might have to get rid of them... or hang them on the wall if they dont shift!
