A to C measurement and steerer length on the magnums please Arran :)

Hey Mate,

A2C = ~ 415mm. Steerer is 205mm, 1 1/8 threadless.

I can send 'em out to you freight free if you want 'em. ;)

Thanks for the sizes.. veeeeery tempting. Don't know what I'd put them on... but still veeeery tempting.

Please give others preference while I sit on the fence and ponder.

Don't Have any Yellow Judys for sale do you?

Nah, not anymore. I had a set of really nice '96 SL's with Englund air cartridges but I sold them on my M900-equipped Klein Adroit. What a doofus... :roll:
 
Prices a bit rich? I'm open to (near) offers & if you're nt 'desperate' to get hold of a pair of forks the sea freight option is actually very reliable... if a little slow...
 
Magnums now spoken for. I'll consider reasonable offers if anyone's interested in one of the remaining forks...
