Mag21's 1 inch steerer for sale or swaps

[nathanman]

I have just bought a set of mag21's off the bay thinking I could just get the steerer threaded and give em a lick of paint and I'd be good to go. Turns out I'm an idiot as the steerer on these have a smaller internal diameter than a standard 1" tube so you can't fit the stem in. Original eBay listing below with pics

I'd like back what I paid which is £41 posted, this will include me posting them on to you. I'd also be open to swaps for a 1" threaded fork with a minimum steerer length of 160mm

The fork boots in the eBay pics are not included as they didn't get to me with the forks.

You just beat me to lease. I had the same idea to get the steerer threaded. S there anything that you want for swaps I have a few bits kicking about

I only really need a set of 1 inch threaded steerer forks at the moment tbh, min steerer 160mm. Not bothered if they are rigid or bouncy. Im always open to suggestions though bud.

Interesting fork that.

The fork itself is a MAG30 (1992)
The crown is a 1993 style crown, but with an Aluminium (aka SL) steerer which was a 1994 steerer and certainly shouldn't be threaded or in that crown (not that it doesn't work in that but must have been press fitted/bonded whatever at a later point).

Thanks for the info chap, I'm not great when it comes to retro suss forks. They function very well but aren't any good for my needs as I need a threaded steerer. The one in the crown looks to be press fitted and is absolutely solid.

If they are a bit of a mix up of mag forks are they likely to be dodgy? I don't want to pass on anything that may be dangerous.

Should be fine if everything looks good.

You never know someone might have a threaded 1" steerer and want a 1" threadless (95/100mm headtube)
