    Wanted Stiff spring for noleen elt fork

    I have a noleen elt fork (not the smart shock version) but the spring on it is super thin and I need something a bit more supportive. I have another on a wall hanger frame but it's proper chipped and tatty so am after another fresher one if you have one let me know. Cheers

    Thanks but I think it's already sold. I have messaged the seller just in case. Just my luck as it's just the kind of thing I was after🤦

    Wanted Retro suspension fork for alpinestars cro mega large

    No sorry they don't. There are some that do the reverse eg 1 1/8 frame to take 1" headset but not the way round you require unfortunately.

    Wanted Retro suspension fork for alpinestars cro mega large

    Cheers and yes it's difficult as my frame is very large with a long head tube. I have just purchased some headset adapter cups that will allow me to fit a more common 1 1/8" threadless headset so my options will improve I hope.

    I'm after a nice condition fork with a long steerer for my large alpinestars cro-mega 1992. I can make use of a threaded 1 1/4" steerer as long as it's 185 mm long or I could use a threadless 1 1/8" steerer fork as long as it's around 260mm in length. I like chunky looking forks to suite the...

    Orange clockwork bb size question

    Thank you all it was an old stx RC chainset but it's not in great condition. I have fitted an old FSA mega exo crank and BB as it's a restomod type bike as it's far from A1 condition though perfectly usable.

    Orange clockwork bb size question

    i have what i suspect is a 1994 orange clockwork but the bb fitted to it by a previous owner appears to be the wrong length as the chain rings sit way to far out to be of any real use. I searched through the brochures on here but exact deetails of the width across the square tapers is missing. I...
