Do you reckon that perished rubber has any structural implications?
Are you sure the 440mm fork is for 80mm and not 100mm? I'm getting a bit confused.
I'm in the market for a pair of these but considering buying some new ones from Pace.

Thanks

I reckon given the condition of these you'd be damn happy at that price. Pace are selling at £250..

This from the Pace website BTW: 440mm length forks are intended to fit directly onto bikes which were originally designed to take an 80 or 100mm travel suspension fork, whereas the 420mm length version is only intended for older design frames which were designed for rigid forks.

Thanks for answering the Q IWish...no, the little rubber O rings have no structural significance...just fill a gap.

 

[Harryburgundy]

Didn't realise Pace still had some for sale...just emailed them to see if I can get replacement rubber O rings.
Pace claimed weight for these 670g...maybe I should keep them!

Thanks for the information. Not sure you can replace the o-rings as I had thought the rubber was bonded in to the crown/leg joint.

I've got a pair of the 420mm ones and I wouldn't sell them, but contemplating the 440mm ones for a 29er.
