Orange Clockwork Forks

JackN · Jul 5, 2015

I've a 1993 Clockwork with the original forks. This has probably been asked before but is it possible to fit suspension forks? I realise that these would have to be retro, and probably unobtainable. Would the geometry be adversely affected, is it a stupid idea? Thanks.

I used to run Manitou 2's on my '92 Clockwork, not too tall to effect the geometry and pop up time to time for not a lot of money.

Well, it has to be Pace...! RC-35's would do the trick.

You just need to ensure you get a 1" threaded steerer to fit the headtube.

I thought that Pace would be the ones. I'll keep an eye on ebay.

Personally I wouldn't bother there's loads of flex in the original forks and think if you fit early suspension forks your just adding weight it won't make much difference to the ride

a 65mm marzocchi nZ2 bomber will improve it night and day. And those are the forks that would look period and do the job proper

X2 for RC35's. They go very well with a 1993 Clockwork. Shouldn't cost the earth either and plenty about.
