1 1/8th forks & 26.4(?) seat post

[mellon farmer]

just 'won' a frame on e-bay for 1p so not looking to spend much as going to be moved on once complete.

Frame headtube is 132mm without cups so need some forks with suitable steerer, V or canti brake only, prefer suspension but emphasis on cheap and cheeful really.

Seat post- tried a 26.8 and goes in a few cms befor getting stuck so not sure if I need 26.4 or 26.0 if there is such a size- micro adjust please and again cheap and cheerful too.

many thanks

Hi, I have some 1999 (?) marzocchi Z5s, 190 mm steerer off the top of my head. They are air forks, quite basic but not too heavy. Think they are 80mm travel but not 100%.

Never fitted, bough on a whim and stored. They seem to work ok, but cant 100% say they are perfect, as not fitted to a bike ridden by me. They do lose air eventually as I pumped them up a few months back and took them out of the box in the garage today and they are a little flat again.

£25 posted? Or if in Devon can knock a fiver off.

sound pretty good- do you have a pic? I am in Cornwall so not too far away, where abouts in Devon are you?
